A big THANK YOU to the 64 dads, granddads and kids who joined us last weekend for the Dads4Kids Fun Camp. It was absolutely fantastic!!! Something amazing happens when dads get away from the everyday and create time with their kids.
Men’s health in Australia is in dire straits. On average, men in Australia die 5 years younger than women. Sadly, every day, 50 Australian men (under 75 years of age) and boys die from preventable causes.
The good news is you don’t need to break down on the Nullarbor Plain to enjoy an adventure or admire the heavens sitting by a campfire. If you’re near the South Coast of New South Wales, plan to join us at the upcoming Dads4Kids Fun Camp at Coolendel, 7-8 November 2025.
Words have power, especially when it comes to parenting. Used with thoughtful intention, words can build up and create. Used carelessly or worse, recklessly, they can tear down and destroy. One word that seems to have gone out of fashion is the ‘D’ word, Discipline.
As recently reported by "The Daily Mail", Stevie Payne, the brother of champion Melbourne Cup jockey Michelle Payne, who also appears in the 2019 biopic film "Ride Like A Girl", has found love.
The 2025 Dads4Kids Fun Camp will be held from 7 – 8 November at the beautiful Coolendel Campground, located on the Shoalhaven River around three hours south of Sydney. Build memories forever with your kids.
Andrew asked pertinent questions, listened intently, and tapped into his vast experience to help me get unstuck, get growing, and get upgraded. He has a way of getting to the crux of an issue, and I’ll be forever grateful for his wisdom and counsel.
When it comes to fathering, sometimes it's two steps forward, one step back. Always remember, even if you get hit back a step after two steps forward, you’re still one step ahead from where you were before. Dads, keep on keeping on!
Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, grandads and father figures! I hope you’re able to spend precious time with friends and family today and celebrate the positive influence dads have. No man is an island — we need a supportive community to flourish and grow.
Dads4Kids' recent Men’s Leadership Summit was an incredible weekend of encouragement, practical training and peer-to-peer mentoring. We were inspired to stand fast in the faith, to be courageous and strong as men. In the company of great men, well, there’s nothing quite like it.
