Basecamp 2
An exciting group-based programme for children aged 12 – 17.
Basecamp 2 offers your child a safe and fun place to make new friends and share their passions and interests. Importantly, it’s your child who controls what they get to do at Basecamp 2. It’s all about them and what goals they want to achieve.
Over the course of 36 weeks, meeting one evening a week, each young person can follow their own personal development programme based on their needs and interests. Through each step of the programme, your young person will get the support and encouragement of a 1:1 mentor who is there to help them gain independence, grow in confidence and increase their self-esteem
Basecamp 2 has been running for many years now and each year the young people who attend amaze us with what they achieve.
By focusing on six different Cairns based on the Getting in Right For Every Child Wellbeing Indicators has the chance to push themselves out of their comfort zone, become more involved in their local community and take steps to become more confident individuals.
Basecamp 2 will also encourage your child to get active through trying a new sport or reaching a new level in one they are currently passionate about, to share topics with their peers that are important to them and to work on life skills in their home or out in the community.
