1. Submit an Enrolment Form

Select an available program from the menu above, and fill out the applicable enrolment form.

2. Book a Trial Session
During the enrolment process, you’ll see a Stripe link to book and pay for your trial day. This gives your child the chance to experience a session firsthand, and see if Adventure Minds is the right fit.

3. Join the Community
If your child enjoys the trial (which we’re confident they will!), you’ll be invited to join a family group chat and officially become part of the Adventure Minds crew.

We don’t have a fixed location. Each week, our sessions take place in different outdoor locations across the region you’re participating in. This keeps the experience fresh and gives participants the chance to explore new environments. Occasionally, we revisit favorite spots.

The sessions are drop-off & pick-up, and a mild to moderate level of fitness is required for activities.

The Adventure Core program is our standard weekly session designed to build confidence, resilience, and social skills through outdoor adventure and group-based challenges.

The Adventure +Plus program includes everything in the Adventure Core offering, but with extra experiences — such as special excursions, additional activities, or guest-led sessions — giving participants even more opportunities for growth and exploration.

These activities may include things like:

• escape rooms

• abseiling

• paddle boarding

• learn to sail

• surfing

• ice baths

• rock climbing

• gel soft

…and many more!

We offer two programs with different prices for each.

Our Adventure Core program is $59 per session (when paying in full), or $65 per week if opting in for weekly payments.

Our Adventure +Plus program is $95 per session (when paying in full), or $99 per week if opting in for weekly payments.

NOTE: While we do accept families using NDIS, the nature of our programs is to work with independent individuals.

We take a maximum of 20 children per program to maintain a strong group dynamic.

Our programs run with a facilitator-to-participant ratio of 1:10.

We welcome children with high-functioning neurodiverse needs (e.g. ASD, ADHD), provided they can participate independently without one-on-one support. If your child requires a support worker or ongoing assistance throughout the day, our program may not be the best fit.

Yes. We accept self-managed and plan-managed NDIS funding. We invoice fortnightly.

We either separate our programs into two age groups, or combine our classes if applicable:

When separate, we divide our groups into:

• Tweens - 9 to 12 years old

• Teens - 13 to 17 years old

There are occasional crossovers depending on a child's maturity.

In New South Wales, sessions start at 10:00am, and finish at 3:00pm.

On some occasions times will be altered, though this will be communicated to you clearly in advance.

It’s important that you arrive early to your session so the group can begin activities on time. If you are late, the group may leave without you.

Families are responsible for getting their children to and from the session location. We aim to keep our activities within a reasonable local range, and carpooling can be organised through your session group chat.

The safety of your child during our program is paramount. We've taken measures to uphold the integrity of the program while prioritizing your child's health and development.

This includes:

• First Aid & CPR trained facilitators

• All facilitators have a Blue Card

• Facilitators carry SOS devices

• First AID & Medical Backpack in each group

• Thorough enrolment form to ensure we are aware of your child's needs

• Session planning congruent with the Australian Adventure Activity Standard, and their Good Practice Guides (AAAS & GPGs)

Reach out to us! We’re expanding and happy to bring our program to new areas where there’s enough interest.
