About

Wildlings Dempsey is our private nature space where older children develop character, confidence and resilience in the great outdoors. Wildlings Dempsey sits within a tropical jungle environment with dense planting, natural terrain, a signature campfire area and an extended environment that stretches into surrounding fields and jungle trails. Camp is 9:00am to 12:30pm daily, Monday to Friday, 19th to 23rd October. Drop-off from 8:45am. With the optional Camp Extension the day runs 8:45am to 3:00pm. Eagles Challenge Camp is designed specifically for 8.5 to 11 year olds who are ready for more. Children are involved in the design of their camp week, so every week is unique. Our educators plan experiences based on the interests of each group, and Eagles get access to the full environment: the campfire area, the jungle trails, the treehouse, the climbing tree, the slackline and beyond. Expect harder challenges, greater independence and the kind of outdoor skills that build lasting confidence. What to expect: - Advanced fire skills and independent camp cooking - Survival skills and challenges - Advanced tool use and creative woodworking - Navigation, orienteering and expedition skills - Shelter building, knots, lashes & tent pitching - Environmental science, foraging, garden projects and sustainability - Team expeditions and physical challenges Every child brings something different to camp. We see future scientists, builders, leaders, problem-solvers and adventurers, and our educators draw out each child's strengths. Bring a water bottle, snack, sun hat, covered shoes and a change of clothes. Come ready to embrace the great outdoors! The full camp guide will be emailed to you before camp.
