A DAY AT CAMP

A typical camp day starts with breakfast and RDG (small group) time in the morning. Following that, the kids attend two morning sessions with an encouraging message, fun games and worship time, as well as a break for morning tea. After lunch, kids can partake in many activities, ranging from hanging out by the beach, participating sports, hanging out and much more. After dinner, the day concludes with a night session that is similar to a Friday Night youth service.

CHILD SAFETY

 

This is a Drug & Alcohol Free Camp.

We have ensured volunteer venue control around the campsite throughout the duration of the camp.

If your teenager is found to have broken one of our camp rules outlined at the commencement of camp, our Youth staff & team may require you to come & collect your teenager from the campsite.

All of our leaders & workers are required to have an Australian approved WWC clearance check, in addition to a leadership interview before being a part of our camps.

 

FAQ's

WHAT DOES SUMMERCAMP LOOK LIKE THIS YEAR?

We believe that God has something significant in store for our youth this year! We have planned an exciting new range of summer activities as well as the signature Summercamp rallies for all students at our Queensland Summercamp.

WHAT IF MY CHILD REQUIRES MEDICATION / OR HAS AN ALLERGY?

They can bring their medication to camp & drop it to the pastoral care team on arrival at the campsite (they will receive instructions during the first ‘welcome to camp’ meeting.

Where possible it would be great to include a step by step of how to administer it/how often it should be administered.

If your teenager has an RDG leader, it would be great to also touch base with them so they are aware of their need.

WHAT IF MY CHILD HAS DIETARY REQUIREMENTS?

This should be included within your registration under the ‘medical conditions’ field.

WILL MY TEENAGER BE ABLE TO BE WITH THEIR FRIENDS?

YES.
· Sleeping arrangements: These are separated by gender, however within that they can choose to sleep in the same tents as their peers.
· Tribes: They can hang with their friends no matter what tribe they are a part of.
· Activities: They can spend time with their friends for afternoon activities no matter what tribe they are a part of.

WHAT IF MY TEENAGER DOESN’T KNOW ANYONE?

Phone our church office (P: 1300 535 353) & ask to speak to the age-group pastor at your closest campus. They will be able to look out for them at the camp, get them connected and make sure they have an incredible time at Summercamp.

Your child’s safety is our priority! We have paid security and paramedics at the campsite at all times. All swim activities will be supervised by lifesavers.
