Level 3 Outdoor Education

This is an advanced course building on experiences gained in Level 2 Outdoor Education. There is a Unit Standard option and a University Entrance Achievement Standard option. Students must decide at the start of the year which option they will follow for the whole year. This course is assessed both practically and theoretically and is a course designed for students contemplating a career in the outdoors and also for students that want to continue to recreate in the outdoors in the future.  The achievement standard, university entrance course, is essentially a Physical Education course using an outdoor context. Students doing 300PED or 300HPE can only gain these standards once and will take the unit standards course.
