Students Find Connection on our Southern Cross Course
Outward Bound's Southern Cross course is a 21-day program designed to connect and empower students of diversity or who are fostering diversity in their communities. We hear from our 2023 students to see how the found the course.
An important part of an Outward Bound experience is being fully present and connecting with the people around you and the nature that surrounds you and to do that, we ask students to hand over their devices so they can live in the moment.
