Holiday Camps and Field Trips


We are a passionate team of conservationists, teachers and guides, committed to building a sustainable future where all humans, creatures and the environment are respected, valued and nurtured.

We work towards this in two ways:
- Inspire, educate and empower young people.
- Operate a sustainability-driven eco-education business.

This is a great opportunity for your teen to experience a range of exciting activities in a safe environment, such as:
- Educational Bushwalks: Learning from nature about geology, geography, biology, ecology, and the importance of biodiversity and ecosystem services.
- Bush Skills and Bushcraft: Covering safety, survival, tracking, medicinal and traditional uses of plants, etc.
- Wildlife Monitoring: The use of radio tracking and trail cameras in monitoring wildlife. Game Drives – both during the day and at night to observe and learn about animal behaviour.
