Experience the best of the outdoors on our Adventure Week!!
Lakewood Park Camp is owned and operated by Halls Outdoor Education who have been in the outdoor education industry for over 30 years.
All staff hold WWCC, First Aid and relevant qualifications in activities.
Lakewood Park Camp is in the idyllic region of East Gippsland, under 10 min
drive from the township of Paynesville and only 15 min drive from Bairnsdale.
Overlooking the beautiful and well protected Masons Bay, Lakewood Park is on a picturesque 200+ acres of rolling pastures with hidden gullies ideal for exploring.
Lakewood Park is packed with fun activities that we carefully select for teenagers to enjoy.
We pride ourselves on being able to accommodate all dietary requirements and put together an inclusive meal plan.
The SUMMER Adventure Camp is designed for teenagers between the age of 12 - 15 years. We provide a safe environment and encourage Campers to build new friendships, develop life changing skills, create unforgettable memories and the opportunity to un-plug from the familiar day to day schedule.
There are limited spaces on the SUMMER Adventure Camp and we encourage you to request an Application Form if you are interested in applying for your child/children.
Application Forms must be completed thoroughly before returning. Please include all relevant medical information & medications, dietary needs, emergency contact details and signed consent form.
Please note the application form does not guarantee a place on camp and you may be contacted by camp staff to further discuss the application.
We offer a complimentary accompanied Bus transport option from Puffing Billy Train Station in GEMBROOK, Victoria. Meeting & departure times are not negotiable and children cannot be picked up from their home.
Alternatively, families can organise their own personal drop off and pick up directly to Lakewood Park Camp during specified times.
Lakewood Park Camp is a mere 400 meters from the well protected Masons Bay on the famous Gippsland Lakes and is situated on a picturesque 200+ acres of rolling pastures, with hidden gullies ideal for exploring, bush camping areas, bush construction areas and its own lake.
Adjacent to the Banksia Peninsular in East Gippsland, Lakewood Park Camp is ideally located in the heart of the “Riviera of Victoria”, so called due to the climate which is quite different to that of the rest of Victoria.
This unique climate results in the winter daytime temperatures generally more like those experienced in northern Victoria, without the really cold nights and with less rain. With day after day of clear blue skies and the warming winter sun, you hardly feel like itÂ’s winter.
In summer, we rarely get the extreme heat because on most afternoons we get a welcome sea breeze. The weather is perfect to enjoy the lake and seaside environment.
All of this makes Lakewood Park Camp an ideal coastal location for your school camps at any time of the year.
Lakewood Park camps are packed with fun activities that provide educational outcomes and enjoyment. Each school group's activities are planned and supervised by our fully qualified team supported by the teachers ensuring the utmost safety for all students.
