Tumbelin Outreach

Tumbelin Outreach is a voluntary school-based adventure therapy program that challenges and supports students at-risk of harm associated with alcohol and other drug use.

Delivered weekly over a 10-week term, groups of 10-12 students undertake activities which increase in intensity and culminate in a three or four night expedition.

Through structured adventure-based learning and group work that takes a relational and restorative approach to wellbeing, students explore self-awareness, healthy peer relationships, managing emotions, healthy risk taking, goal setting, and decision making. 

Using ‘challenge by choice’ principles, students are encouraged to address their alcohol and other drug usage, determine how they can make positive differences in their school and home lives, set goals and experience personal and group success.
