Wombat Corner Camp is an accredited campsite located near the township of Emerald, Victoria. For the past 30 years our campsite has been running School Holiday Programs for children aged 5 to 12 years. Recently we have teamed up with Halls Outdoor Education to increase our activities on offer and to ensure continued quality of staffing. Our staff and leaders are responsible young adults with current working with children checks and are committed to working with children in the outdoor education field.

Camp experiences are a positive way for your child to build self-esteem, make new friends and build on pre-existing friendships. If your child is aged 5 to 12 years, then why not send them along to experience for themself the fun and enjoyment Wombat Corner has to offer.
