What?

WHAT?

Machane Kriat Hamagshim (call of the actualiser!) is Habonim Dror Sydney’s 2024 Kayetzet (Summer Camp)! Habo Summer Camp is an incredible opportunity for Jewish youth to make friends, receive experiential Jewish education and have a lot of fun. Habo is an inclusive and warm space where the skills and interests of everyone are nurtured. Get ready to experience fun informal programs, camp activities, music, dancing and quality time with your friends!

As for the camp name - in Habo, we stand by a belief called 'Hagshama', which is to actualise one's values. A 'Magshim' is someone who practices 'Hagshama' - a person on a continued journey of striving to bring down to reality the values they hold above them. Hence, 'Kriat HaMagshim' - Call of the Actualiser. Our chanichim (participants) are a part of a long history of chanichim who have grown up to be Magshimim in our community and around the world. In a time when being proudly Jewish and acting on one's values is so important, this name hopes to remind us all of exactly that!

Every Kayetzet (Summer Camp), Habo Sydney hosts 'Year 2 Day' for all the Year 2's who are eager to get a taste of Habo before they can join officially in year 3. It's an awesome compact day experience of summer camp filled with plenty of fun activities. Year 2's are usually transported to and from the campsite via mini-bus with their Madrichim (leaders).

This year we have the exciting opportunity to allow our Year 2's stay overnight! We know this may not be every Year 2's preference, so the option to stay just for the day is still open. 

Year 2 Day will happen on the 22nd of December, with the option to stay overnight and return with the rest of camp on the 23rd of December.

Habonim Dror acknowledges the tension currently faced by the jewish community surrounding the current situation in Israel. The safety of your children, our chanichim, is of the upmost importance to us. We are in constant contact with CSG and strictly adhere to AZYC policies and guidelines. 

Our madrichim are experienced in informal education and care a lot about your children. We spend a lot of time putting structures and practices in place to ensure the safety of your children on camp, and we are constantly assessing and improving the way we run camp so it is fun and safe. Habo camps have been running for decades which provides valuable experience on how to run safe and successful camps.

All our madrichim have Working with Children Checks and comply with the Australian Youth Zionist Council's child safety policies. For more information, view these policies below:
