Expect a summer filled with outdoor adventure, spontaneous fun, and the kind of energy only camp can bring, from slip-and-slide showdowns to wide-open field games and everything in between. This is leadership with heart, humour, and impact.

If you’re ready to lead boldly, create magic daily, and make this summer unforgettable for everyone involved, we’d love to hear from you. Apply now and be the heartbeat of an extraordinary summer in Anzac.
