I was over the moon with Camp Blue and we'll definitely be re-enrolling each school holidays!

    Renne
  • "Havana and Monty had a blast last week as always. I don't have any comments or suggestions other than keep doing what you are doing. It is very reassuring as a working parent to know that the kids are engaged in a camp that actually thinks about what will make them happy".

    Morwenna
  • "This is my saving grace for school holidays so I can work like crazy for a week. You are always so super organised. Even with the parking dilemma this camp you still made it a fun time with the kids hooraying whoever was called for pickup in the lane. We all left with big smiles on our faces. Well done guys – you are doing a super job and are efficient to the max!"

    Peta
  • "Loved the counsellor inclusion.  India's in touch via Instagram, email and message with the girls and has enjoyed posting a couple of the photos you put up.  She's raved to her friends and any adult who has asked how she enjoyed camp the response is 'it was awesome'!"

    Fiona
  • "Madi  came back absolutely shattered and raved about the whole experience. I am glad that she had such a great time and wants to do it all again – no pressure. You are all still amazing and I can’t stop telling people what a great organisation you are. Thanks for making school holidays fun!

    Kylie

    Ray
  • "Just a huge fan – think Bella has been about 9 times now. Bella has never once complained about going and looks forward to it every single holidays. There were tears when she didn’t think she would get in the January weeks so we were very pleased when additional spaces became available."

    Kathy
  • "Fantastic, this was our first time at Camp Blue and our daughter has not stopped talking about it. An absolute blessing for working parents....Abig thankyou to the whole team on a great week for our daughter, we will definitely be back and Georgia will be telling her friends! THANKYOU"

    Kerrie
  • "As a Primary School class teacher I appreciate when something special happens in a child and when they are switched on/motivated or something stirs inside them: well Mylo had that 'lightbulb turning on moment' with Basketball for the first time. I cant thank you Kate, Sam and those other inspirational camp blue team members enough.  He came home buzzing every day with what he had learnt in photography but particularly Basketball"

    Dave
  • "Absolutely fantastic and I would recommend (and have done in the last couple of weeks) to everyone with children - we will definitely be back if we can get a spot for Holly. Thanks again for making it such a great and enjoyable first time experience."
