Description: |
Male and female support and recreation camps
for siblings, aged approximately 8-14 years, held twice a
year. The purpose is to draw siblings together in an environment
of fun, learning, sharing and support. Both male and female
camps have a strong rural activity focus and the presence
of a professional facilitator/social worker provides a safe
and stimulating atmosphere to discuss sibling experiences.
In addition, Interchange Wimmera offers activity days which
serve as a follow up to the camps and are held every school
holiday, 4 x year. A minimal fee applies for camps. (Negotiated
annually). Approximately a $4.40 fee applies for day activities.
