Belgravia Outdoor Education (BOE) has protected the future of The Outdoor Education Group (OEG) by securing significant assets from this respected provider of outdoor education. This includes its brand, intellectual property, and established client programs in Victoria, NSW and WA, including Camp Eildon, Camp Jungai and Eildon Base.
OEG has been a pillar of Australia’s outdoor education sector for four decades, touching the lives of over 33,000 students annually and employing over 190 dedicated staff and educators across multiple states. Belgravia Outdoor Education is honoured to carry forward this legacy with pride and ambition.
As part of the 100% Australian, family-owned Belgravia Group – with proven expertise in sports, recreation, aquatics, and education – BOE brings enhanced scale, financial security, deep operational experience, and a shared mission: to help one-million young Australians become more physically active every year.
The transition means no interruption to existing programs, which will continue with the same high standards of safety, instructional quality, and educational outcomes. BOE will leverage its network, including venues such as The Briars, Narmbool, and the National Mountain Centre at Mount Buffalo Chalet to provide more diverse and flexible programming moving forward.
“This is about building on the incredible work OEG has done for decades,” said Richard Thornton, CEO of Belgravia Outdoor Education. “We’re committed to honouring that legacy while bringing new innovation, stability, and a values-driven culture to benefit schools, students, and educators alike.”
