What happens at winter school holiday camps?
Fun and adventure galore!
It might be easier for us to tell you what doesn’t happen at our winter school holiday camps because the action and adventure are endless! We’re here to make it as smooth as possible for your child to feel integrated and part of the fun from the first moments at winter camp.
Children are grouped with others of a similar age to help them build friendships and stay challenged at the right level. Each group is supported by their very own PGL ‘Groupie’ for the entire winter camp experience. Groupies are responsible for nurturing an inclusive camp environment, as well as looking after your children’s health, safety and welfare at all times.
During their stay with us, kids will be taken through a range of fun and challenging activities, which could include archery, flying fox, canoeing, abseiling, bushcraft, and so much more! We provide them with 3 delicious, nutritious and filling meals per day in our purpose-built dining rooms, and by night they stay in our comfortable cabin-style accommodation.

If you have any trouble booking, please refer to this video for assistance, or call us on 1300 859 895.

What is the difference between a holiday camp and a day camp?
Holiday camps are designed for children who are confident enough to leave their parents overnight and throw themselves into fun and adventure. Winter holiday camps are a 3-night / 4-day experience. This includes accommodation and all meals (breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner and supper).
Our winter day camp program ensures that you can drop your children off in the morning and pick them up again in the afternoon, giving them a full day of fun and excitement during their school holidays. You can choose from a single day, or opt for a 3-day package, or a 5-day package. All our day camp packages include morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea.
What should I pack for my child’s stay?
We have a handy packing guide that outlines everything you’ll need to pack for your child’s winter adventure camp.
