The word ‘נצר – Netzer’ is an acronym for “נוער ציוני רפורמי – No’ar Tzioni Reformi” – Progressive, Zionist, Youth.

These are the foundations of Netzer’s Ideology: Progressive Judaism, Reform Zionism, and Youth engagement.

Netzer uses informal education to run a variety of activities that are both fun and intellectually challenging. We aim to empower the youth and encourage them to be active participants of the Progressive community. Netzer is a world-wide movement which is affiliated with the World Union for Progressive Judaism and has branches (sniffim) in fourteen countries.

Netzer Australia has been providing positive and vibrant Jewish experiences for our community and its youth for 40 years. Through Netzer, our participants engage with their Jewish identity, making lifelong friends and becoming leaders of our community.

Like the rest of the Australia, Netzer is also heavily affected by the rising cost of living which is unfortunately reflected in our camp prices. Nonetheless, we are doing our best to keep our prices as low as possible and ensure we have subsidies available for anybody in need. The cost of camp amounts to roughly $110 per day, which covers accommodation, transport, food, camp merchandise, resources and equipment, high quality Jewish education, and for the parents, a week of childless fun!

If you require a subsidy, please see below.

It is Netzer’s policy that all kids should be able to experience our camps and activities, if you are in need of assistance for camp please contact Hadar at shaliachnsw@netzer.org.au

Each year level has specific topics as well as engaging with our broad aims of Jewish identity, Tikkun Olam, Progressive Judaism and Reform Zionism. No matter the topic, all year levels learn in an inclusive, fun and engaging environment that fosters individual growth and critical thinking.

If you live anywhere too far from the campsite, please let us know in the sign up form so we can arrange a billet. We provide assistance in covering the costs of flights and travel from smaller communities through the generous support of the Union of Progressive Judaism.
