    IMPORTANT NOTICES:
    A more detailed gear list will be sent to those offered a place on camp. We will be staying on a marae and sleeping marae style. Mattresses will be provided so bedding and appropriate sleepwear is what's needed in this instance. Appropriate clothing & footwear, personal toiletries and other basics such as a drink bottle and hat are also on the gear list.

    WE DO NOT ALLOW THE FOLLOWING:
    Food / Drink / Snacks / Lollies etc
    Devices (Cellphones, Smartwatches, Tablets etc) Cigarettes / Vapes / Drugs / Alcohol / Weapons Or any other illegal or age restricted items

    MARAE-STYLE SLEEPING:
    CDN Trust camps periodically incorporate one or more marae-style teams. This means that these teams participate in all the normal camp activities, but additionally may have some extra cultural elements, will sleep in an mixed-gender room which will have an open environment with experienced leaders. Separate, individual, gender-neutral cubicles are available for all changing, toilets and showering. No one is to change clothes in the open-cabin environment. Please select an option below to let us know whether your child can be included in one of these teams if we are running Marae-style teams on this camp. Marae Teen Camp 2024 will have everyone (campers and leaders alike) sleeping marae style together in the wharenui.

    Please Note: It is CDN Trust policy that in order to make camp a safe, enjoyable and inclusive place for all children, if your child is gender-neutral, trans-gender, is more comfortable in an open-mixed environment or for any reason needs access to an individual changing area then the marae-style team/camp would be best for them. If any of these apply to your child please select the “Definitely Yes” option below. Whilst we are striving to accommodate all young people and their needs on all camps, unfortunately we are unable to offer marae-style teams on all of our camps. If by your preference or our policy, the marae-style team would be required for your young person, we may ask you to register them for our next camp which can accommodate them instead. Please get in touch with the camp director if you would like to discuss further.

    [Select one option when filling in online registration form] *Please note the upcoming Marae Teen Camp only offers marae style sleeping.
    1. DEFINITELY YES (my child should be in a marae-style team)
    2. YES (my child can be included in a marae-style team)
    3. NO (A marae-style team would not be suitable for my child on this camp)


    PROGRAM & SAFETY DETAILS:
    Staff and volunteers are trained in health and safety and leadership skills. We will always have at least one Leader trained in first aid on every program. This event is for high school students who are in years 9, 10, 11, 12 or 13
    Staff to child ratio is max 1:10 (Leader/Camper) for activities at a base, and 1:6 for programme's away from a specific venue.

    We are a Christian organisation and we will share some biblical principles on this programme.

    The event will proceed regardless of the weather, however some activities are weather and availability dependent. If we are forced to change activities due to weather or other circumstances we cannot refund fees. Young people must wear proper, appropriate and safe clothing for all activities. Cancellation due to other circumstances outside our control are unlikely but possible, if this is the case we will communicate via email and phone/text message as soon as possible and be in touch regarding refunds where applicable.

    Please be aware that because safety is our first consideration our policy needs to be strictly adhered to. Parents will be phoned if their children are causing disruption to the programme. Parents must be able to pick up their child from events/camps/programmes if necessary. Where serious harm may occur the child/children will be removed immediately.
