Weekend Respite Camp
Our camps are great for all young people, from those with high levels of energy to those who enjoy quiet time and space. We are flexible and adapt activities to suit the young people attending. Each camp is run by skilled and trauma informed practitioners who create and hold a safe environment for participants to have fun, participate by choice, make new friends and create lasting memories. There is a strong focus on adventure, fun and free play supported by staff to help develop cooperative play and conflict resolution. Our Respite Weekend Camps are held monthly, running from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoons with a support ratio of minimum of one staff member to four young people (This ratio may change dependent on young people's needs). These camps can work as planned respite for caregivers to have a break for the weekend knowing that their young people are in good hands. Locations change regularly to suit environmental and seasonal conditions and activities delivered during camps. Activities may include; - Swimming, Stand Up Paddleboarding, Water play - Fishing - Natural Play - Cultural walk - Sand boarding - Mindfulness activities
