Testimonials

  • Stephanie Layec
    Macleans College Head of Faculty ESOL

    My team is feeling a little down this week because same day last week, we were having such a great time and enjoying seeing the students enjoy themselves as much as they did. The recounts they wrote this week speak volumes. Students who normally struggle to write 4 lines have written 2 pages. That is the effect you had on our students.

    All staff were friendly and approachable. They were knowledgeable and did a fantastic job. We were very pleased. The camp was very well planned and thought out. We had no concerns. The team building games, rock climbing and archery were highlights. Well run programme, making it stress free for teachers and parent helpers.

    I absolutely loved my time at this camp! The scenery was stunning and I loved how it was so close to a beautiful waterfall. The instructors were awesome. They taught us how to make a raft, rescue someone hurt, climb all sorts of things and always believed we could do it. Thank you Kokako lodge for this amazing camp.

  • Noma Koke Aanauatasi

    Our church and youth members were all happy at your place compare to other places we have camp before. They commented about how clean the toilets are, the wideness of the beds and the thickness of the mattresses they were so comfortable. The fresh air from the trees around and they love their walks in the mornings and spare times. But for us the chefs, we love everything in the kitchen so handy. So on behalf of our church and youth I would like to say thank you very much for having us stay at your place. We are very much appreciated everything your team had done for us.

    Kokako Lodge Instructors are very professional and having familiar faces each time we go is very helpful. There is clear communication on expectations throughout the day and a variety of activities. We loved it. Awesome experience.

    It was cool seeing all the different students stepping up as all the activities were a range of levels of challenge and the staff encouraged our programme goals of motivation, communication and self-management.
