Tawonga encourages positive growth and self reliance in a nurturing environment. Every child feels special at Tawonga, because every child is special at Tawonga.

At camp, this means we train staff that our community is kid-focused, and that at Tawonga, the children always come first. It also means that counselors as well as all other staff are trained to focus on the needs of the individual child, to know kids and to love all of them for their unique talents and qualities.
