Netzer recently held their annual Summer Junior Camp for Years 3-9, Machane MaHaMatzav (Camp What’s Up).

Shnat Netzer is a ten month leadership gap year program encompassing participants from all over Australia and South Africa. Shnat Netzer involves independent living, intensive education from top Israeli educators, volunteering, sightseeing in Israel, working on a kibbutz (an agricultural community) and so much more. The Shnat Netzer program is designed to not only be a fantastic year of self development and growth, but to equip participants with all the tools they need to be the future leadership of Netzer and the wider Jewish community. The program is also an opportunity for the participants to engage fully with Netzer’s ideology and explore how they want to live their lives, formulating a personal Jewish Identity and connection with Israel.

Netzer leader Ben Milston was featured on ABC program The 7.30 Report, describing his preparations to serve in the IDF.
