Are you tired of all the “usual” camps but don’t know where else to go?
Does your current list of camps offer limited options in terms of things to see and do or involve too many hours of bus travel?
Here’s seven reasons why you’ll love Bendigo for your next school camp:
1. Bendigo is the seventh largest gold producer in the world with 700,000kg of gold found on the Bendigo goldfields during the gold rush. You’ll learn about Bendigo’s unique geology on an underground tour at Central Deborah Gold Mine, a real gold mine that operated during the gold rush.
2. Bendigo has more than 10 attractions which are geared towards different year levels and subject areas (from history to science, arts, humanities and environment). Check out our suggested itineraries.
3. Bendigo is only a 90 minute drive (147km) from Melbourne’s city centre.
4. Once in Bendigo, most of our attractions are conveniently located near the city centre and can be accessed via Vintage Talking Tram.
5. Bendigo has outstanding parks along the tram route where your students can enjoy free time and an outdoor lunch or you can have a unique lunch experience underground!
6. Depending on the size of your group, there are a range of accommodation options from which to choose.
7. We want to make it easy for you to organise your next camp! Complete our online bookings form or design your own itinerary to see how easy it can be.
