CAMPS AND BUSH CAMPS

Our camps provide adventure and comfort. With an array of activities offered on-site, our facilities and cabin accommodation ensure your students receive a taste of all the natural world has to offer.

Our bush camps offer a unique experience in a semi-remote bush setting. In a supported environment with fewer amenities, your students will leave their digital footprints behind and experience themselves and the natural world like never before.

CAMP WOMBAROO, NEW SOUTH WALES

Camp Wombaroo provides students with a space for personal growth and exploration. With over 100 acres of lightly wooded land to explore and a wide variety of wildlife to observe, your students will leave with new skills and new ideas.

CAMP MARYSVILLE, VICTORIA

At Camp Marysville, we foster environmental literacy, personal management and community. We grow our own ingredients or source seasonal, fair-trade produce locally. We put waste to good use by either composting it or turning it into animal feed.

CAMP JUNGAI, VICTORIA

Camp Jungai provides experiences your students will remember for years to come. With a long-standing relationship with local Indigenous leaders, your students will gain unique and invaluable insight into the land and its First Peoples.

With an emphasis on building communication skills, collaboration and social cohesion, Bush Camp Eildon connects two sites with overnight bushwalking, camping and cycling. One site has access to the best paddling on the Goulburn River. The second has a brilliant high ropes course and more.

BUSH CAMP BILOELA, NEW SOUTH WALES

At Bush Camp Biloela, students discover they are capable of more than they know. With architecturally designed cabins carefully placed in the forest, surrounded by river flats, Bush Camp Biloela offers students endless opportunities to extend themselves.
