School's Out!

Beyond The Bell is a screen-free school holiday program that gets kids outdoors, moving, and making real-world connections — no devices, just genuine fun.

This winter, we’re proud to call Balmain Rowing Club home — a beautiful heritage venue right on Sydney Harbour, with Elkington Park and Balmain West Wharf just steps away.

Each day is a carefully curated mix of team challenges, waterfront missions, park takeovers, and skill-based games that encourage confidence, courage, and connection. Kids will climb, run, problem-solve, and collaborate — all under the guidance of qualified school teachers who know how to bring out the best in every child.

With small group sizes, structured programming, and a focus on kindness, leadership, and play, Beyond The Bell offers something more than just a camp — it’s a place where kids can move, belong, and grow.
