Building Experiences since 1987

At Camp Australia, we recognise that children need a different experience through the school term, to the experience they have on their holidays. When you partner with Camp Australia, you’re partnering with the best Before and After School programmers in Your OSHC service, and the extraordinary holiday adventures of Rocketeers.

When you partner with us, a dedicated team, led by your Relationship Manager, will support your school, committee, board, and parent groups to ensure that the needs of your community are met. In addition, your partner portal will be activated to give you complete transparency of the day-to-day running of your service.

Why should you partner with Camp Australia?

Our service programs are child-led, extending their learning and encouraging curiosity. We guide children's growth with enriching and engaging activities tailored for all abilities, cultures and interests. From skills they will use forever, to experiences they can only experience at Your OSHC and Rocketeers, our programs are for every child, every day.

Safety and security of the children and their families is at the forefront of every decision we make. Our unique safety supervision method is called VSHAPE which means the children are always in Vision, Scanned for visibility, Headcounts every 15 minutes, Anticipates children’s movements, Positioning to ensure complete vision, and Engagement with the children at all times. Adding to our commitment to safety is our secure app system called One Child, which allows parents to sign children in and out of the service in a safe and compliant way. At every school we also establish an individualised Risk Management Plan, a Medical Management Action Plan and our proprietary inclusion program.

We tailor our parent fees and licence fees to your school to offer competitive returns for your school, whilst providing affordable care for families.

We commit to investing back into your school. From playgrounds to kitchens or resources, Camp Australia assesses your OSHC needs and meets them to ensure the service is always top quality.

At the heart of Camp Australia is our industry leading team to guide, engage and care for the children at your school.

Camp Australia’s award-winning CARE inclusion program provides our educators with industry leading, evidence-based practices and tools to best support the children in our care. Any child with additional needs or who requires inclusion support in the OSHC service will have access to the CARE inclusion program. The CARE inclusion program, developed in collaboration with renowned child psychologist Dr Andrew Fuller, has been selected as an ABA100® Winner for Business Innovation in The Australian Business Awards 2020.
