We offer school camps in Victoria to cater for all ages. We offer stimulating programmes for primary school and secondary school students – with specialist activities and learning schedules designed to complement your students’ educational studies. We’ll work alongside teachers from schools across Victoria to develop tailored programs at our two camp locations that provide inspiration and challenge to your students.

Our Customer Relations Consultants are always available to help you plan the perfect trips for your students before your camp visit. We’ll work with you to understand the learning outcomes you wish to achieve during camp so that your camp program is tailored just the way you want it when you arrive.

Both of our Victorian campsites cater perfectly for school groups, with slight variations across each venue. All students are housed in comfortable, multi-share rooms with ensuite facilities or toilet and shower facilities nearby. Teachers are generally accommodated in single, twin or triple rooms with ensuite accommodation, with bedding provided. Whichever camp you stay at, we ensure that you and your school camp group will be comfortable.

A vegetarian alternative is always available, and we can accommodate most special diets required on medical or religious grounds.

We leave nothing to chance here at PGL when it comes to the safety of everybody who attends a school camp at our campsites. All our school camp activities are carefully planned and led by trained instructors who adhere to strict safety guidelines. We regularly inspect and maintain our equipment to ensure a secure environment for all participants.

PGL staff will also lead groups and instruct students and pupils on activity sessions, whilst we allow teachers and group leaders to continue to have responsibility for student behaviour and welfare. We also have a list of risk assessments and activity descriptions that you can view on our PGL resources page. 

Here’s a handy link to our packing guide which will let you know everything you need for a school camp. Soft-sided bags like duffle bags are easier to store in your cabin. Please try to limit the weight of your bag to under 15kg.

At PGL, we believe in connecting students with nature. Our school camps in Victoria are strategically located within stunning natural environments, providing a perfect backdrop for environmental education. Activities often incorporate elements of ecology, sustainability, and appreciation for the outdoors. Students gain a deeper understanding of local flora and fauna, developing a sense of responsibility towards conservation and environmental preservation.
