WHAT IS MACHANE IGLOO?

I'm glad you asked! This year Machane Choref will run like a day camp at Habo house, 7 St Marys Ave, Waverly.

 

Machane Igloo is open for years 3 - 11, and will be running from 9am - 4pm over the camp dates (however these times may slightly vary from day to day, refer to schedule below).

 

And not to fear, If you’ve never been to habo before, camp is an inclusive and open environment. Get excited to hang out with friends, peulot, ruach and more of your favourite camp activities!

 

As a result of the current situation, machane cannot be run on a campsite like normal. However, we are following the AZYC guidelines as well as restrictions set by the government. We are receiving regular updates of regulations, so keep an eye open for any changes made.
