Cancer Education Program
Camp Quality visits primary schools and education and care services across Australia to provide age-appropriate cancer education.
The Cancer Education Program is a fun and interactive show featuring Camp Quality’s popular Camp Quality Puppets to help kids reintegrate back into the school after cancer treatment and to support schools to create supportive communities for all children who are impacted by a cancer diagnosis in the family.
In 2020, an independent assessment by KPMG proved that the shows have the ability to reduce bullying, anxiety, confusion and exclusion that can occur from a cancer diagnosis in the family.
