My reserved, introverted, anxious, 13 year old had the most fantastic time at one of the summer camps. She went not knowing anyone else, and made connections with other campers as well as with the camp leaders. Raved about the food, the activities, just EVERYTHING and had asked to go back next holidays. A bigger endorsement you could never get! She came home with so much confidence in her ability to do new scary things, and we cannot thank you enough. – Shelley, Holiday Camp 2023

5/5

I just finished staying at Golden Valleys for the Summer camp and the experience is amazing, the food tastes so good and is very well made. The staff are amazing people and so friendly we all got along very well and shared some awesome memories, they made us feel at home and safe. The activities there are amazing they all involve team building and trust and it’s amazing making new friends at camp. Our cabins were neat and tidy and I overall had a wonderful time, it was so much fun. I enjoyed it so much that I didn’t want to leave and cried so much because I didn’t want to leave all the friendships we’d built. It’s such an amazing and beautiful place! – Katelin, Holiday Camp 2023

5/5

My daughter attended the Summer camp and struggled the first night away from home but everyone was amazing. She got moved to a cabin where she felt comfortable and loved every minute thereafter. Thanks heaps.

Overcome challenges

While our focus during the school term is on school camps, holiday camps are an opportunity for kids to experience the thrill of meeting new friends and challenging themselves over the school break. School holiday camps attract families from all over Victoria and we appreciate that many parents count us part of their village recognising the positive impact of camp in a young persons life.

ADVENTURE

Kids love our high energy and team building activities! We encourage campers to challenge themselves and try something new.

FRIENDSHIPS

Sharing a camp experience in a positive and encouraging environment creates a safe place for kids to form new friendships.

FUN

make the most of the holidays! Do something fun! Our aim is provide campers an experience they will never forget!

As part of the booking process you can request your child to stay with friends who may be attending the same camp. We will do our best to pair friends together for their stay.

 

Can I make progress payments

 

WE WANT TO MAKE HOLIDAY CAMPS ACCESSIBLE FOR FAMILIES.

Yes we offer monthly payments to break up the cost of registrations. Just choose the part payment option when you register. Your credit card will be charged each month until the remainder of the balance is paid.

Is the second half of the week the same as the first?

No. Although we separate our holiday camp weeks in to 2 halves, the second half is not the same as  the first.

We recommend the full week experience if you want your child to experience all that a holiday camp has to offer!
