About

Set sail on an exciting raft building experience where kids can enjoy a perfect mix of teamwork, problem-solving, and outdoor adventure!

Children will learn basic knot skills, work together to design and build their own rafts using recycled materials, then put their creations to the ultimate test on Currumbin Creek.

  • Raft Building – Use recycled materials such as pallets, rope and containers to design and build a raft ready for the water.
  • Knot Skills – Learn useful knot-tying techniques to help secure and strengthen the raft.
  • Teamwork and Problem-Solving – Work together to plan, build, test and make adjustments along the way.
  • The Ultimate Raft Test – Launch the rafts on Currumbin Creek and find out if they can stay afloat!

For ages 6–9 years (drop-off).

Places are limited and bookings are essential.
