Since no-one else has replied with any help I'll jump in. I'm not a local but I know that Kangaroo Point under the lights is a bit of a thing and it won't be hard to meet people there. Plenty of toproping opportunities. Think of it as a gym.

As for climbing which is a bit more memorable than Kangaroo Point (the best thing about KP is the socialness), there is Frog, Glass House Mountains and Coolum. Frog is crack climbing where the grades really start at about 17 or so, though it's not like Araps - the cracks are cracks! Glass House Mountains is lots of adventurous climbing with a few sport crags thrown in. I'm not sure you'll get much sport at 14 but you'll get plenty of adventure. Coolum is the premier summer crag with steller sport climbing and squishy grades but it starts at about 24 so it's probably a bit out of your stated grade range.

I'm sure actual locals could tell you more, but these are the crags I've visited as an interstater.
