TRANSPORT: We will be driving to Forster from NBC in minibuses and Youth Leaders Cars (no red 'P' plates). If you would prefer for your child to go in a minibus, please say so in the registration form (there’s a space to write general comments at the end of the registration).

ACCOMODATION: We will be camping at Camp Elim as we have for the past few years. Tents will be shared by friends according to gender.

MEALS: Meals will be provided from dinner of Sunday 19/1 through until lunch of Thursday 23/1. Meals will be wholesome and healthy, and if you have dietary requirements they will be catered for. We ask kids to bring money for lunch on the way up and for occasional visits to the shops/cafes/ice-creameries while we are in Forster.

BIBLE TEACHING: During the camp we will be looking at stories about King David from the Old Testament of the Bible. The material will be dealt with in a way that is age-appropriate and accessible for those who know these stories or have never heard them before! The emphasis will be on Jesus and how he is the Good Shepherd that the story of David was pointing to.

SUPERVISION: Leaders on camp all have valid Working With Children numbers and all youth leaders do Safe Ministry training. There will be a medical doctor on camp, as well as numerous leaders with First Aid training.
