Summer Holiday Camp: 6 – 10 January 2025

Take the hassle out of the school holidays and give your kids the adventure of a lifetime with a PGL Holiday Camp!

PGL Kindilan in Redland Bay runs Holiday Camp programs, specially designed for 8-14 year olds. This is your chance to get them off the couch, off their screens and into the outdoors to create some great memories and meet new friends during their holiday break!

What Happens At PGL Kindilan?

What will they do at PGL Kindilan, you ask? Well, they will be enjoying adventure activities galore – think ziplining over a lake, raft building, a giant swing, aeroball, archery, canoeing…

But these holiday camps are about so much more than adventure activities. Kids will learn important life skills such as resilience, self-confidence, teamwork and leadership, as well as challenging themselves to do things they never thought possible.

Everybody knows how important these characteristics are for success in life, and these are learned under the guise of fun at a PGL camp. Win-win!

Overnight and Day-Camp Options

PGL offers a range of camp options:

  • 5-day residential camp (Mon – Fri)
  • 3-day residential camp (Mon – Wed)
  • Adventure days (Mon – Fri available)

Overnight holiday camp program

Your child can stay at one of PGL Kindilan’s amazing holiday camps and experience the adventure of a lifetime! An overnight stay at a holiday camp offers a learning experience that transforms, enthuses and inspires children.

What’s more exciting than staying overnight at camp? Choosing your bunk bed, having a few nights of independence from your family and throwing yourself into fun and adventure. These camps include all accommodation, meals, adventure activities, evening activities and pastoral care from dedicated Group Leaders.

Adventure day camp program

If you want to get a little taster of what life is like on a holiday camp, then why not explore one of PGL Kindilan’s adventure days? Your child can experience an action-packed day with fun and excitement from the first minute they arrive, all the way throughout the day until it’s time to depart for home. 

Day camps offer a full-day program experience of exciting adventure activities before being picked up in the late afternoon. Day camps include lunch, morning and afternoon tea, exciting adventure activities and pastoral care from dedicated Group Leaders.

Please note: The day camp program is for children aged 8 – 12 years only.
