WEEKEND CAMPS FOR TEENAGERS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS
Ben and Thea are registered Special School Teachers during the school term teaching an academic curriculum. We are also heavily involved in promoting sports, recreation and Arts activities, alongside the curriculum. Our weekend camps are a combination of safe, adventurous recreational activities that allow the participants to explore the world outside of the home and school environments. The benefits of camp for teenagers with special needs are: •increased confidence and independence • activity and exercise • the opportunity to interact with other kids, develop friendships, and build relationships • positive role modeling by adults •a chance for parents to have a much-needed break.

“My 14-yr. old son thoroughly enjoyed 😍attending camp with special kids holidays. In the lead up to camp, they were very informative about the camp and what was going to happen while my son was at camp. The camp coordinators are highly trained to meet the complex needs of my son and are very caring and compassionate people. He had an amazing time🤩 and thoroughly enjoyed the camp. I would highly recommend special kids holidays for your special person. My son will be back again for another amazing camp experience with these amazing people”— Michelle B, Northern Gold Coast, QLD.

“I'm from the northern rivers area. My son attended this camp and had a ball. He can be quite nervous with activities like these having qualified special needs teachers as the leaders was an added bonus. Will be certainly attending these camps when they are available. Has done so much for his social skills and confidence. Can't recommend them highly enough"— Jane, Northern Rivers, NSW.
