EASTER CAMP is a camp for all ages to enjoy Christian fellowship and Bible teaching. The camp is intended for young people and family groups – primary school children need to be accompanied parents or guardians. Expect a good weekend of Bible teaching, fellowship, and activity.

This is a Camp for learning and togetherness. The programme will include Bible Talks, Studies and discussions, along with some recreational diversions. Everyone will be required to join in the programmed activities including recreation, meetings, and duties. Experience a few days in a large “family”. To ensure a good atmosphere there will be camp rules, and in particular we insist on no alcohol, cigarettes or drugs, and require campers to remain quietly within their allocated accommodation during the night. Also, no pets.

Camp Begins on the evening of Thursday 2 April with the first meal being breakfast on Good Friday. The camp concludes after lunch on Monday 6th April. Lakeview Bible Camp is situated on the northern side of Lake Rotorua, 4km past Ngongotaha.

o Lakeview Bible Camp has a Health and Safety Policy in place in the interests of campers’ welfare. Every care is taken by the Camp Leadership but the Trustees of the Camp exclude their personal liability.
