Tailored programs

At The Great Aussie Bush Camp, we know every school has its own priorities, outcomes, and reasons for coming to camp. That’s why our programs are never one-size-fits-all, they’re tailored to support your goals, whether that’s personal growth, leadership development, wellbeing, or team building.

In NSW, we offer curriculum-aligned outdoor education programs that connect with key learning areas such as:

In QLD and VIC, our focus is on highly personalised programs built in partnership with teachers to achieve your school’s unique objectives. Our unique REACH framework ensures each experience pushes young people to go beyond their comfort zone so that their development is powered by the extraordinary. Whether it’s Relationships, Experiences, Achievement, Character or Health and Wellbeing as the focus for the adventure, our aim is to help spark those breakthrough moments that you just can’t get from a textbook.

No matter which state you visit, our team works closely with you to create a program that delivers exactly what your group needs and helps young people build real-world skills and a sense of personal achievement.

Unmatched Adventures

Boasting one of the widest ranges of on- and off-site adventure activities of any outdoor education centre in Australia, Bush Camp delivers experiences to suit every student. From adrenaline-pumping challenges like giant swings, flying fox, and power fans, to relaxed hands-on favourites such as canoeing, bushcraft and archery, there’s something for every interest, confidence level, and ability.

We welcome all students and strive to make every adventure inclusive. Each activity operates under our “challenge by choice” philosophy, encouraging students to step outside their comfort zones at their own pace while building resilience, teamwork, and confidence along the way.

With so much to choose from, every visit feels fresh, exciting, and uniquely tailored so it’s no surprise so many schools return to Bush Camp year after year.

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to you and your team for the amazing experience you provided during our recent excursion. From your valuable advice and assistance with bookings to catering and activities, your support was instrumental. I also want to extend my gratitude to all the instructors who were not only professional but also approachable, motivating, and dedicated. Their enthusiasm was infectious, and it was wonderful to see students who usually remain inactive fully engaged and smiling throughout the activities. Your flexibility and commitment to making everything run smoothly were greatly appreciated. Thank you once again for everything.

We went as a small school group and it was so great. The instructors were amazing. They all had great energy and delivery. As teachers, we all loved the night guard aspect and the food was top notch for staff and students. All of my kids had a great time too!

Tanya Sundfeld

Amazing camp. The instructors are fantastic with the kids. The teachers are really like after. Nothing is too difficult and they are always checking in to make sure everything was going well and to see if there was anything that we needed or they could do for us. The activities were so much fun. Their challenge by choice philosophy is great. It allows the children to feel safe enough to try new things but without the pressure. Such a brilliant camp.
