Pricing

Costs associated with the camp will be broken down into two invoices for…

Your Enrolment Fee ($550.00 + $10.00 administration fee).

You will be asked for an Enrolment Fee of $550 to begin our comprehensive Enrolment process. This is a contribution towards costs incurred by the charity during the enrolment process and some camp-related expenses which cannot be billed to the NDIS. As a result, it is an out-of-pocket cost. This Enrolment Fee is fully refundable until you sign your Camp Service Agreement at which point it becomes non-refundable. We offer a payment plan if a one-off payment is not possible.

Accommodation is in cabins/lodge rooms.

  • Up to six people are able to stay in the accommodation in QLD, VIC (max 2 adults, 4 young people) in bunks.

  • Up to six people are able to stay in the accommodation in NSW (max 2 adults, 4 young people) in double bed and singles/bunks in a family room.

If you are a single parent you are welcome to bring another adult with you, eg a grandparent or friend. Another option for single parents, is to come with another single parent and child and then split the costs.

Due to the high demand for our camps, a family cannot be allocated until an Enrolment Fee is paid and your service agreement has been signed. We don’t want to waste your time, or ours, so please confirm all funding before starting an enrolment process.  

Packages, programs and access to facilities are developed to ensure equity across all sites. Some are catered, some are not. Styles of accommodation differ. This ensures choice and flexibility to the greatest number of families. Each site has its own unique characteristics but all follow the same structure of programming.
