| 14th Australian Venture: January 2009 | | | |
|
The 14th Australian Venture is to be held in Perth, Western Australia from 4 January to 15 January 2009. The theme for the
Venture is ESCAPE - a chance to experience the fun, adventure and freedom of being a young person at a Venture. It will feature a 5 day, 4 night expedition as well as onsite and off site activities from the Venture base.
New Zealand will be sending a contingent to the Venture, and applications are now sought for the role of Contingent Leader. Their responsibilities will include:
- Involvement with the planning for the contingent
- Selection of leaders
- Communication with leaders and youth members
- Development of the budget
- Development of travel arrangements and any pre or post Venture touring
- Communication with the Venture International Liaison leader
For Venturer Scouts interested in attending the Venture, it is now time to register this interest through the National Office ( email - admin@scoutingnz.org.nz ) to ensure that further information can be provided when received from Australia. Do not register direct with the Australian Venture website as all applications to attend an overseas event must be handled through the National Office. | |

| Outward Bound Live the Dream® Adventure Scholarship | | | |
| Applications are now open. Click here to find out more information and to download an application form.
"I found out what I already knew- that no matter what happens I can and will survive. I have the strength inside me” an indelible mark on over 45,000 New Zealanders who have experienced personal and social development through Outward Bound’s courses. With many participants making comments like “life changing” and “inspiring”, Outward Bound must be doing something incredibly right.
That something stems from their mission to inspire personal and social development through value based experiential learning in an outdoor environment. From this flows the values we all want to find in ourselves: Compassion, Greatness, Responsibility and Integrity.
With Outward Bound’s obvious link with the outdoors it’s easy to see why Kathmandu wanted to become involved. We see Outward Bound and their experiences as a bridge for people to discover, or enhance, their connection with the outdoors - not just from an activity perspective but on a deeper personal level.
“When I started this course I wanted to come away a totally different person, instead, I discovered that I love the person that I already am”.
The Outward Bound experience is for all New Zealanders regardless of age, race, gender or disability. With our sponsorship of Outward Bound we want to help the New Zealanders who just need a little extra help or motivation to really achieve greatness. We want to make it possible for more everyday New Zealanders go through the Outward Bound experience, step outside their comfort zone and challenge themselves. | |
| Venturer Units can either combine with Rovers, or particpate in the Challenge as a unit.
