GET 'UNPLUGGED' FROM ELECTRONICS AND RECONNECT WITH NATURE! 


Roll up, roll up for a day of classic carnival chaos at Woodhouse! We’re bringing back the old-school fun with quirky sideshow games, carnival treats, creative crafts and all the nostalgic funfair vibes

Program highlights (but not limited to!):

  • Step right into circus school as you learn fun circus skills including juggling, poi spinning, slacklining and ball spinning challenges 
  • Try your hand at funfair favourites including duck fishing, water coin drop, tin can bowling, bean bag toss, bottle ring toss, cup shuffle challenges, water pistol target games, donut-on-a-string races and more old-school carnival chaos 
  • Strike a pose in the Woodhouse photo booth before grabbing a fresh serve from the Woodhouse popcorn machine
  • Head to the craft room for carnival-inspired creativity, with older adventurers making juggling balls while younger kids create flip books and colourful carousels
  • Choose your own adventure - tackle our famous Challenge Hill obstacle course or whizz down the fast and furious Tube Slides (subject to weather).

...all this and more on our 54-hectare natural wonderland! You bring the energy and we’ll pack in the fun - big adventures, even bigger smiles - and a guaranteed good night’s sleep!  

Rain, hail, or shine, the fun never stops! We’ve got contingency plans ready to go, so no matter the weather, the kids will have a blast.

AGE SUITABILITY & GROUPINGS:

The UNPLUGGED program is designed for primary school kids, from Reception through to Year Six (generally 5-12 years old).

We ask that Receptions complete at least a term of school before heading to a Woodhouse day camp. They will be used to the school routine on which UNPLUGGED is based, meaning they will settle in better and get the most out of the program.

Children are generally split in age groups 5-7 and 8-12 to ensure the activities match abilities and everyone has a great time with an appropriate level of challenge. This can vary depending on the split of ages in the group.

All ages come together for lunch, morning/afternoon tea breaks and then at Tube Slide / Challenge Hill at the end of the day.
