Something that’s stuck, since we started Camp Beaumont day camps all those years ago (42 years to be exact), is the value of a good morning dance to invigorate both the body and mind. This Mental Health Awareness Week we’re telling everyone to start your day with a dance! All Camp Beaumont alumni will remember the Wake Up, Shake Up dance. It’s a dance that not only breaks the ice on a camper’s first day, but also fosters wellbeing. Dancing is free, easy to fit into your day, and best of all can involve yours or your child’s favourite music.

Keep dancing!
Fabulous organised fun. Lots of new experiences and very well run with enthusiatic staff.
