What if your school camp could contribute to real global science? 🌳📱

Through Urban Camp’s Trees Around the GLOBE program, Primary School students become citizen scientists, investigating trees in Melbourne’s Royal Park, collecting environmental data and uploading their findings to NASA’s GLOBE database.

It’s a hands-on STEM experience that brings science out of the classroom and into the real world.

Available exclusively to school groups staying at Urban Camp.

Just three kilometres from Melbourne’s CBD... but it feels a world away. 🌿 Every stay at Urban Camp begins with the sounds of Royal Park: birdsong and fresh air, right on the edge of the city. It’s one of the little things our guests remember long after camp is over.

A little dose of Western Australian sunshine on a chilly Melbourne day! ☀️
Jenny has been visiting the beautiful Fairbridge Village, catching up with another fantastic camp and sharing ideas that help create even better experiences for the groups we welcome to Urban Camp.

🎤 Quality control is a serious business… someone had to test the karaoke machine! 😄 The verdict? Volume up, fun level rising and ready for your group.

Whether you’re belting out the classics or cheering on your friends, karaoke is just one of the many evening activities that make a stay at Urban Camp unforgettable.

“Excuse me… I believe I have a booking.” 🐾

We had a very important visitor drop by Urban Camp today. Dudley made himself right at home at reception, checked in on the team, accepted pats as payment, and boosted office morale by at least 300%.

Safe to say he’s welcome back anytime. 🧡

Was a delight to meet our local Federal Member for Melbourne, Sarah Witty MP. Sarah enjoyed our Disco n’ Glo, hearing about our 40 year history and how so many school and other community groups love our Urban Camp.

Charlie is one of the first to welcome groups as they arrive at Camp. Bags are dropped, teachers check in, and the plan for the evening takes shape, starting with a simple “welcome to camp” induction.

By this point, most groups have already spent the day in the city. Students are ready to reset. A well-structured arrival helps teachers keep things organised and running smoothly from the moment they walk through the gate. It’s a rhythm we’ve refined over years of hosting school groups.
