Put down the screens. Find your people. Discover what’s possible. Hangout Connect brings young people together through camps and activity days designed to build friendships, confidence, resilience and a sense of belonging—with plenty of fun along the way.
Two camps a year. Monthly activity days. Connections that keep growing.
“Dates, locations, age groups and program details will be announced as they are confirmed.”
What We’ll Focus On
Getting to know others, including people who may feel left out, and building respectful friendships.
Understanding emotions, recognising when support is needed and practising everyday ways to look after ourselves and each other.
Working through challenges, trying new things and discovering that setbacks don’t have to define us.
Exploring how words and actions affect others, standing up for kindness and knowing where to turn for help.
Building awareness of boundaries, safe choices and how to ask a trusted adult for support.
Helping shape activities, taking responsibility and discovering what each young person brings to the group.
Room to laugh. Space to grow. People to connect with.
“Activities will vary according to the venue, age group and participants. Confirmed event listings will explain what’s included.”
The camp ends. The connection continues.
Reconnect with yourself. Reconnect with others. Reconnect with nature.
Note: Device arrangements, essential communication and any accessibility or medical exceptions will be explained before each event.
Dietary requirements and food allergies will be discussed during registration.
Young people will help shape the experiences they take part in. We want them to feel included, contribute ideas, make meaningful choices and take pride in what they bring.
Build trust and relationships as the foundation for support and growth.
Share meals, conversation and a sense of community.
Create time to know one another and keep showing up.
Give young people opportunities to contribute and help shape their experience.
We welcome enquiries from young people and their parents or carers, as well as schools and organisations supporting them.
We’ll discuss the interests and support needs of each participant to help identify a suitable experience.
Event information will include:
Our initial focus is young people aged 8–18, with activities and camp groups organised into suitable age ranges. Each event will specify who it is designed for.
The Hangout creates programs, experiences and places where young people can reconnect with themselves, others, nature and community.
