About the program
Campion College’s Summer Program provides an unparalleled opportunity to experience college life and a taste of the Campion College course. Our immersive five-day program provides the opportunity to reside on campus and interact with like-minded peers. We have a fun-filled program including a beach trip, movies, trivia, dancing and sports, as well as sample lectures from our history, literature, philosophy and theology professors.

Travel arrangements
Travel to and from Campion College is at the participant’s expense.
For any students traveling from regional areas or interstate, we will organise group transfers to and from Sydney Airport and Toongabbie Train Station. You will be asked to indicate your travel intentions on the registration form and provide flight/coach/train details closer to the program start date.
Instructions for participants arriving and/or departing via the airport
The group pick-up from Sydney Airport on Day 1 of each program (Sunday 5th January or Monday 13th January) will take place at 2.30pm. We encourage you to book flights that arrive by 2.00pm.
The group transfer from Campion College to the Airport on Day 5 of each program (Thursday 9th January or Friday 17th January) will leave around 2.00pm. Even though this is well before the end-of-work rush, Sydney traffic on Thursday and Friday evenings can be unpredictable and it may take up to 90 minutes to arrive at the airport. We encourage you to book late flights so you have ample time to reach the airport, check-in and relax before your flight.

The group pick-up from Toongabbie Station on Day 1 of each program (Sunday 5th January or Monday 13th January) will take place at 3.30pm. Toongabbie Station is on the T1/T5 Train Lines (click here to view the Sydney Trains Network Map).
