The 2024 Camp Teddy event was wonderful.
All Teddies & soft toy friends returned home after experiencing a fantastic time at camp.
2025 Camp Teddy
& 'OT' invites you to:
​
INDIVIDUAL REGISTRATION
OPENING SOON
Mascot ‘OT' (Orange Teddy) invites your Teddy or Soft Toy to join him on this 'National Child Protection Awareness Day' event.
​
Teddies or Soft Toys of all shapes and sizes will join other participants (known as 'Campers') to attend Camp Teddy. They will be transported to the camp by bus. Campers will be assigned bunks, they will not be sleeping in tents as some campers worry about storms, foxes, leeches and being outside when it is dark. They will be comforted if they are sad about being away from home, so please don't worry.
Your Teddy or Soft Toy will enjoy 14 days at Camp Teddy. If selected and ordered, you will receive three photos showing your camper participating in the fun activities that you have chosen. Additional photos may be ordered if you wish.
​
(This event is for your teddy or soft toy friend only, not the child.)
