This is a great chance to experience life in the real Australian bush with a group of other young people from all over the world, in a safe, healthy, fun environment.
We are located in a beautiful setting surrounded by over 10 thousand acres of National Park, and have lots of native animals on site.
We are a non-profit Christian camp & conference centre located just 2 hours south of Sydney on 300 spectacular acres in the beautiful Southern Highlands of NSW. We have been established for over 30 years. Each year we host camps for schools, scouts, youth, church and community groups.
Several thousand guests stay here each year, and we often have volunteers staying with us who remain friends for life.
We are seeking a small number of volunteers to help us in exchange for food, accommodation & use of our guest facilities.
Typically you would be working an average of 5 hours per day, less on some days more on others. We usually start early so you finish early and can spend the afternoon enjoying the beautiful property, facilities and surrounding national parks.
Our volunteers have an awesome time, with lots of really great home cooked food and fresh produce, and use of our guest facilities such as our La Scala Coffee Machine, horse riding, hot tub under the stars, fully equipped high quality gym, pool, zip lines, giant swing and other outdoor adventure activities, basketball, volleyball, scenic lookouts, bonfires, etc.
Please note - there is NO MOBILE COVERAGE and NO WIFI available anywhere on the property, but our volunteers do have access to a guest computer which we provide that has a high speed internet, so you can easily stay in contact with family and friends. Many past backpackers have commented that it’s actually such a nice change just talking to everyone and enjoying the unique tranquility here rather than on your phone all the time
These are volunteer positions so there is no wage but also no cost for the use of all our great facilities, awesome food, accommodation, etc. It's a great opportunity & a truly worthwhile experience....just ask any past volunteer!
If you'd like to apply, please reply telling us a little about yourself.Tipos de ayuda y oportunidades de aprendizaje
