South Australia is blessed with so many adventure destinations – which is why it’s also the homebase of several school camp providers. With the rich diversity in nature and various adventure options, school camp providers here can offer a range of activities for students to enjoy.
Most school camp providers align their activities with the curriculum of primary and secondary schools across the region. The outdoor education activities they offer build up from classroom learning, and help students develop essential life skills. Going out in nature, learning various skill sets, being part of team building, and gaining leadership skills are main factors that enrich students who participate in school camps.
School camp packages generally take into account the number of students, inclusion of activities, catering, accommodation, and add-on tours. Some school camp providers can also organise whole programs for you, or you can collaborate with them on the most suitable activities. It’s also best to coordinate with the school camp provider on how you can arrange logistics, meal plans, rooms, guidelines, and itinerary for the entire school trip.
Students get the chance to learn more about themselves and have fun while they are on school camps. It’s the perfect opportunity to extend their learning beyond the four walls of the classroom, and explore wonderful destinations around South Australia and interstate. School camps provide a great foundational experience that students can take with them to adulthood.

Our 9 year old son was a first time camper and was very apprehensive at the start but camp staff were amazing and when we picked him up he couldn't stop talking about how good camp was and that he wants to go to all Access Adventure Camps. Communication between us and camp staff was excellent and they really took the time to discuss our son's needs prior to camp. Highly recommend Access Adventure Club and our son will definitely be going on camp again!Posted on Google![]()

Access Adventures has provided a very safe, enjoyable and well supported adventure for both my child and young adult participants! Both thoroughly enjoyed their experience and still speak with fondness of the friends and memories they made and skills they learnt. As the parent, I felt completely relaxed and content that my children were in an environment where they had the opportunity to flourish. Both have now been re-registered for future Access Adventure experiences and look forward to seeing their favourite supports, friends and camp leaders again soon!Posted on Google![]()
