Our Tangalooma Respite Camp is specifically designed to empower young teenage boys with independence and practical life skills. Campers will take an active role in meal preparation and clean-up, alongside managing their personal areas and belongings, fostering a sense of responsibility and collective effort in the day-to-day operations of camp. 

​

Upon arrival at the Island by ferry, we have an array of outdoor activities planned. The itinerary includes a desert safari that will take the boys across the island's unique sand dunes and offer thrilling tobogganing experiences. They'll also have the chance to feed dolphins by the water's edge and gain insight into the island's marine life and ecosystems. The boys will also have the opportunity to take part in snorkelling to discover sunken sea wrecks and explore vibrant corals and local fish that inhabit these underwater landscapes.

 

Recreational activities such as beach volleyball, tennis, and badminton are integrated into the program, fostering teamwork and sportsmanship in a fun-filled setting. Evening drama activities are designed to bolster creativity and confidence as teens collaborate to create and perform their stories. Nights by the campfire are the quintessence of camp life, where roasting marshmallows and sharing tales forge lifelong friendships.

​

We’re devoted to creating a secure and enriching environment where your children can thrive. This camp is an ideal chance for them to strengthen life skills, build self-esteem, make lasting memories, and forge new friendships. Balancing structured activities with free play, our Allied Health Assistants and Support Workers facilitate a space where learning and enjoyment go hand in hand.
