    From the people who know us best

    It was amazing to see the students be challenged and grow as individuals whilst at The Summit. The staff guided our students in making the most of every opportunity and the energy they presented with was truly infectious. Thank you!

    Michelle Rudd · Year 8 Coordinator, Our Lady of Sion College

    I have been involved in outdoor education in Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada and the USA for 15 years. I can honestly say this is the most passionate, powerful and enjoyable camping experience I have ever had with students. Excellent facilities, excellent staff and excellent philosophy.

    David Ellison · Dept. Education Victoria

    We have been taking our Yr 7's to The Summit for 8 years now. Year after year the girls say 'that was the best camp I have ever been on.'

    Jodie Mitchell · Lauriston Girls Grammar

    As a teacher of more than 20 plus years I have never seen a camp program of this calibre. Sarah did not stop talking about the camp for two hours and was bubbling with enthusiasm and empowerment.

    Paul Rickard · Teacher

    We had a fantastic experience with The Summit! They were very flexible and catered for our business perfectly. Their advice and expertise on our personalised program made the process super simple and we didn't have to do a thing! We definitely would recommend The Summit to other businesses out there looking to give back to their staff.

    Bendigo Bank · Corporate Group

    What an amazing experience at The Summit! Our team absolutely loved having a BBQ and drinks by the fire pit and using team work and determination to tackle Summit Survivor the next day. It's an experience the team has not stopped raving about since – we're already planning the next one!

    Shayma Shehata · Origin Energy

    Thank you for a truly amazing weekend, you guys worked tirelessly! I have plenty of positive feedback from the players about their incredible experience. The weekend provided great momentum as we head into the season!

    Brett Harrop · Melbourne University Cricket Club

    The team at The Summit were extremely professional and challenged our playing group both mentally and physically. Mark Dobson and his team highlighted the key points as how you can strive and then implement to be the best as an individual but more importantly for us as a Team.
