About Birrigai

Birrigai means 'laughter' in the language of the Ngunnawal people.

We believe that at Birrigai:

Students should gain a deep appreciation of the indigenous culture and history of the region.

Students should be inspired, develop a sense of wonder and appreciation by experiencing, exploring and playing in the natural bush context.

Students should experience opportunities to build self-confidence through challenge, learn about leadership, and to be a member of an effective team.

Students’ experiences should be profoundly life-changing, positively influencing a student for years to come.

Learning should be inclusive, immersive, challenging, irresistibly engaging, and full of laughter.
