What if 3 days could transform your child from screen-obsessed to adventure-obsessed?
We know the struggle. School holidays arrive and you're juggling work with entertaining device-addicted kids. Meanwhile, your child misses real adventures and confidence-building challenges.
This December and January, give your child something far better than a screen — give them real adventure, real friendships, and real-world confidence.
With Australia’s under-16 social media ban taking effect on December 10, families across the country are suddenly navigating new routines, emotional reactions, and big changes to their child’s online world.
Camp Cooby’s Summer Adventure Camps give kids exactly what they need right now:
- A healthy break from digital overwhelm
- Real-life confidence boosters (archery, climbing, canoeing, expeditions)
- New friendships and social connection — without screens
- Skills in resilience, leadership, teamwork and self-management
- A supportive environment to adjust to life with less social media
When kids lose their online feeds, we help them rediscover the real world.
At Camp Cooby, magic happens. Kids arrive clutching iPads, leave as adventure champions. Quiet children become team leaders. In 72 hours, our adventure programs unlock hidden potential through archery mastery, canoe expeditions, and mind-bending team challenges.
