Matua Jon — Jul 27, 2022

We are pleased to announce that we have booked El Rancho Holiday Camp in Waikanae for a whole school camp week in week 4 of term 4.

This is our major Education Outside the Classroom activity for this year. Our aim is for every student to attend camp for 2 nights. We will be in contact with parents regarding students who have special circumstances that may be a barrier to this.

Campers will experience a wide range of onsite activities including kayaks, the rock wall, archery, rifles, a waterslide, and much more.

The cost of the camp is $195 per pupil.

We are running a major fundraising initiative through a fun run planned for Friday, September 2. Any sponsorship money your child brings in through this will be offset against their personal camp bill.

A payment plan to cover this can be set up now using the account details as follows -

Our account number is 030726-0508188-00.

Please use your child’s name as the reference and the word Camp as a reference.

Costs include 2 nights' accommodation, meals, transport by bus and a great range of activities onsite.

Camp A will run from Monday 7th, leaving school by bus at 9 am and returning by 3 pm on Wednesday 9th November.

Camp A is open to All Year 7 students

Camp B will run from Wednesday 9th, leaving school by bus at 9 am and returning by 3 pm on Friday 11th November.

Camp B is open to All Year 8 students
