The ultimate base for school camps, offering science, arts, leadership and recreational activities. Engage students in hands on learning, team-building and creative experiences for an educational and unforgettable adventure.
One Base, Every Adventure
Set on the beautiful Tweed Coast at Hastings Point, North Star is the ultimate base for school camps in northern New South Wales. Science, arts, leadership and recreation, all in one stunning coastal location.
Learning Beyond the Classroom
Explore our Marine Discovery Centre, one of Australia's largest privately funded marine education facilities. Students get hands on with local ecosystems and discover the coast through guided experiences like the Rocky Shore ramble, Mangrove Trek and Wallum Heathland walk.
Real Fieldwork for Senior Students
Diverse, easily accessed ecosystems in one location make North Star ideal for primary data collection aligned to senior Biology, Marine Studies, and Earth and Environmental Science. Students run transects and quadrats, sample habitats and gather authentic data to analyse back in the classroom.
More Than Science
Team building challenges, creative workshops and recreational activities help students build confidence and connection, all against one of the country's most stunning stretches of coast.
Everything in One Place
On site accommodation, dining at our licensed Ripples Café and a safe, self contained setting mean less time on logistics and more time focused on your students.
