The nine week course gets progressively more physically demanding – finishing after the eighth week with a graduation day which is aptly named ‘The Longest Day’. During ‘The Longest Day’ young people achieve physical goals as individuals and as team members. In the process they build team cohesion and spirit and an awareness of outdoor pursuits.

The Longest Day ends with a graduation dinner where caregivers are invited to share a meal and watch as participants receive their certificates of completion.
