As a school, Blackwood values its relationships with visiting students and staff and is committed to working with visiting schools to deliver quality educational programs that enhance student outcomes both at Blackwood and beyond.

We understand the considerable time and effort that schools put into organising and implementing a visit to Blackwood and we work closely with schools to ensure that the program designed through consultation with Blackwood Staff best supports the learning outcomes linked to your curriculum sequence.

As a Government school, Blackwood is committed to ensuring that outdoor learning programs can be delivered at a reasonable cost. The per student Blackwood costs includes all accommodation and Blackwood programs. Accessing extra-curricular programs may incur an extra cost for visiting schools.

Visiting schools are expected to arrange all food requirements and costs as well as transport to and from Blackwood Special Schools Outdoor Education Centre.
