Grade 6 Outdoor School and Grade 4 Overnight Tyrell Trip 

Sincere thanks to our teachers and parent volunteers who helped make these two amazing excursions happen for Westgate students. These trips take a significant amount of effort from the teachers in charge, and thanks to them the students have shared a wonderful learning experience together.
