Our mission is to unlock potential in young people, through transformational experiences beyond the classroom, that have a long-lasting positive impact on their lives.
At PGL, we’re a passionate team of professionals who live and breathe our purpose and values. We believe that we provide the best school camps, holiday camps and group facilities in Australia.
PGL gets its name from the initials of the man who started it all in the 1950s – Peter Gordon Lawrence. Now PGL adventure camps are well known for their exciting activities, that keep your children safe and entertained whilst on an outdoor adventure camp.
In 1955, Peter embarked on his first canoeing holiday down the River Danube. Inspired by the experience, back home in England he began leading canoe trips for young adults along the River Wye.
Since 1957, we’ve grown enormously because we’re passionate about what we do. We listen to our customers and continually invest and innovate to provide the very best combination of adventure activities, equipment, accommodation, food and service.
We are delighted to be able to offer the PGL residential camp experience to schools and youth groups in Victoria, Queensland and beyond.
Better Beyond Adventure is our ambitious ESG strategy, showing the commitments that will help us reach our important goals; to care for our places and planet, champion wellbeing, and play our part in society, acting progressively for the betterment of our colleagues, customers and communities.
