Band Camp with School Bands Australia

2nd October, 2021

At School Bands Australia, we believe that music education extends beyond the classroom. One of the fantastic opportunities we offer is our annual 3-day Band Camp, held at The Collaroy Centre on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Set on 10 hectares of stunning bushland with coastal views, this camp is an incredible way for young musicians to immerse themselves in all aspects of being in a band, while forming lasting friendships along the way.

Band Camp features a unique theme that adds excitement and creativity to the weekend’s activities. From past themes like Undercover Band Camp to Band in Space to Once Upon a Band Camp, each year brings a fresh and imaginative experience for our campers. Can you guess what the next theme will be?

The camp is open to training and concert bands across all of our schools, with a musical program tailored to suit the level and instrumentation of the children attending. Students will stay in cabins that accommodate 6-8 kids, with teacher and parent helpers close by for supervision. All meals are provided, including morning and afternoon tea, to ensure the campers are well-fed and energized throughout the weekend.

Band camp provides our young musicians the opportunity to make new friends and explore their musicality in a unique and exciting environment. At band camp, students learn new music and play alongside peers of various experience levels from other schools. Beyond band, the kids get the chance to participate in a range of activities. These vary year to year and promote concepts such as teamwork, personal growth and, of course, fun!!

Upon the conclusion of the camp, we hold a Gala Performance and showcase for the families. This is an excellent opportunity to celebrate music with the entire School Bands Australia Community. It gives the kids a chance to share everything they have learnt throughout the camp.
