Queensland Youth Orchestra Three Camp

QYO3 Camp 2025

On Friday, we arrived at camp by 7 PM, where everyone quickly settled in and enjoyed a delicious butter chicken dinner, topped off with ice cream and chocolate cake for dessert. After dinner, Dr. Howley gathered the kids for a quick rehearsal, and by around 9:30 PM, everyone was settled in their rooms. Although they were tired, the excitement kept them chatting until we called lights out around 10:30 PM. They all peacefully fell asleep soon after!

The next morning, the kids were up bright and early around 5AM, filled with laughter and excitement. Before breakfast, they took some beautiful pictures against the stunning sunrise and views . Breakfast featured egg, hash browns, bacon, yogurt, and lots of fresh fruit. After that, we split into small groups with tutors for more focused learning.

The day was packed with rehearsals by Dr. Howley until the afternoon. Our amazing conductor, Dr. Howley, and Mr JP, organized a variety of fun activities, including bingo during morning tea and team ball game in the afternoon. To wrap up the rehearsals, Dr. Howley finished 30 minutes early, ensuring the kids had plenty of time to enjoy the evening party.
