Camp Begins with dinner, 6pm Saturday 27 December, and ends after an early lunch on Friday 2 January 2026. Part-time attendance is accepted.

Family Camp is designed to cater for campers of all ages. You do not need to attend with your family to enjoy the camp; singles are welcome, but children in Year 10 and below must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Children in Year 8 and below will normally be accommodated with their families in CABINS or OAK LODGE and youth in the DORMITORIES. NIKAU LODGE provides quality double rooms for older campers!

The Programme will be varied, relaxing (at times!) and stimulating. Some aspects, such as the meals, Bible Ministry and singing, will be for the whole camp together. Other activities, like Bible Study groups will be divided by age-group.

Every camper is expected to join in with the activities arranged. We aim to enjoy living together as a large family. As part of this family living expect to be given some duties to perform (we try to make these compatible with your own family responsibilities). The Application Form below has space for you to state your preferences.

What to Bring:
+ For Meetings you will want to bring Bible, pen, notepaper.
+ For Yourself you will want to pack: a sheet to use as a mattress cover, Sleeping Bag or blankets and sheets, pillowcase, towel, toilet gear, raincoat, swimming gear.
+ For Exciting Suppers we’d love some baking, please.
+ For Specialists you may want to bring your own sports gear, scooters/bikes for pump track, musical instruments…!

What Not To Bring:
– Please: no electronics that disturb others, and no pets. Cell phone use will be limited. Fill your ears with God’s Word!

The Fine Print:
o Enrolment for FAMILY CAMP signifies that those attending are willing to participate in all aspects of Camp life, and be subject to the rules of the Camp and its Director.
o Family Camp is run entirely by volunteers from among the campers. Fees cover accommodation costs and food is by donation.
o Camp fees and deposits will be mostly refunded if sickness prevents your attendance.

Late Enrolments:
Fees paid after Dec. 5th are subject to a late fee of $20 per person (max. $50 per family). To avoid this penalty pay at least $20 per person before that date. Also, your accommodation preferences may be limited if you are enrolling late. We are encouraging on-time enrolments, rather than offering a late option!

If you have special accommodation requests please send your application early!

ONLINE enrolments can be made using the Application Form that follows further down this page. Mail and Email enrolments will also be accepted. Fees to be paid after your application is accepted to Westpac 03 0633 0091424 00 – include your name and “FamCamp” as reference.
