We live and breathe cutting-edge hardtop camping and introduction to outdoor experiences and their ability to reset minds, grow resilience, and nurture well-being.
Every young person who comes through Kinglake Adventure Camp (KFAC) not only creates lasting memories but also leaves with newfound optimism and new life skills for whatever their future brings.
Facilitators stay with only one group throughout and have the opportunity to build engagement around behavioral development and guide young people, according to year level, as they take on learning experiences.
Every KFAC experience builds on what students are learning at school, so that the classroom and camp intentions are all in sync.
From meditating deep in the forest to scaling high ropes challenges, there's an inner and outer journey that takes place within KFAC experiences.
