School Camps

School Camps at Somerset

Somerset has been in operation since the early 1980's and is now one of the largest outdoor education centres of its kind in the state, providing outdoor learning opportunities to over 10,000 students each year.

We run Camps for more than 60 Sydney and greater-Sydney schools. 

Students embark on a journey-style program, staying each night at a different campsite in 2/3 person tents. Students complete activities en-route and play an active role in meal preparation, tent setup and group decisions.

Each individual camping group is accompanied by a Somerset Group Leader and a School Teacher for the entirety of the Program.
