Upcoming Camps

Christmas in July at Camp Kiah!

A chilly mid-year magic is drifting across the farm… and it seems Christmas has arrived early! Rumour has it that a burst of winter wonder has slipped out of the North Pole and settled right here between Avenel and Wallan, bringing snow-dusted surprises and a touch of festive mischief.

This July, campers will be creating their own version of Christmas — shaped by imagination, generosity, and the joy of sharing with others. Together we’ll design decorations, make thoughtful surprises for friends, and explore what giving and gratitude truly mean. Through creative projects and simple winter traditions, we’ll discover how special a celebration can become when we build it ourselves.

Join Festive Olly and Shayne and Jolly Ferg and Abi for cosy adventures, winter-themed games, and plenty of laughter as we celebrate the coolest Christmas of the year.

Bundle up and bring your brightest holiday spirit —

Winter magic is waiting…

Our winter celebrations begin on…
