Term 2 is here, packed with exciting activities and opportunities for children to learn, grow and enjoy every moment. Let’s look at all the exciting key dates and events scheduled this school term with Camp Australia Term 2 school care programs.
Play, Create and Celebrate Every Day
Make play a part of your child’s wellbeing daily. Whether it’s trying something new, playing outdoors or creating a masterpiece, every day is a fresh chance for children to explore, create and be immersed in the pure joy of being active and creative.
At Camp Australia, we celebrate the idea of play every day. Because we’ve seen the power of play and how it builds confidence, friendships and lasting memories. With a good mix of themed days, hands-on projects and energetic activities, children have so many opportunities to discover new passions and skills through fun and exploration.
