The Famous SYA Summer Camp

SYA has organised annual Summer youth camps in Sydney since 1999. Now in its 25th year running, the SYA Summer Camp is a great opportunity to make new friends and have fun, while also having the ability to be immersed in knowledge and gain an understanding of Sikhism. By the end of the Summer Camp each participant, no matter how young or old, will have learned something new, created new friendships, and discovered something about themselves!

SYA Summer Camp welcomes participants of all ages. The camp is thoughtfully designed to cater to different age groups, ensuring that each session is tailored to provide an enriching and enjoyable experience for everyone, from young children and teenagers to adults and grandparents.

Facilitators

Each year a team of experienced facilitators share their knowledge, educate and inspire our youth through katha, workshops, multimedia presentations, and open discussions. This is all done in an interactive, fun, and relaxed learning environment with English as the primary medium.

All facilitators maintain a relaxed, non-judgemental environment where questions and discussions are encouraged. While the main medium is English, ALL facilitators speak BOTH English & Punjabi.
