Students start from the basics and improve their archery technique throughout the session. We have a bespoke archery shed with targets a short distance away while instructors encourage students to perfect their stance and work on their aiming skills.

Step carefully around our Burma Trail. Support each other around the loop, but can you complete the course blindfolded? Or in the dark?

Your group will be immersed in our native bush setting, while informed instructors teach students about native plants, bush survival skills, shelter building, first aid and more.

A really fun team-building competition. Students construct a “chariot” strong enough to carry a bucket of water around an on-site timed obstacle course. Instructors work with students to learn classic knots and design planning.

Ever seen a glow worm? Take in a night stroll and watch the 'stars' come out!

An activity for the whole group in one session. A charades competition where each correct answer wins an ingredient to make pancakes on camp cookers. Once they have it all, they’re off, designing masterful pancake creations representing a theme of your choice. These are judged “Masterchef” style by their teachers.

Our 10m artificial is the scene for this challenging and rewarding climbing activity for all ages. Group members work together to support the belaying of their climbers.

Climb up the Centipede, along the Beam or through some tyres, maybe even jump off a pole or see if Kiwis can fly! An individual activity or team challenge, you choose.

This activity is an ideal team challenge focused on trust. Students support each other by spotting and encouraging the main participant to navigate balancing on wires. The Low Ropes arena is in a peaceful spot a short walk away from the main camp.

An introduction to navigation and orienteering skills. Pairs or triplets of students will work together to locate control tags around the property. Four separate courses range farther afield and include the Hunua Falls Regional Park. The aim is to find the most correct markers in the session. It’s a race that students really get into.

Using navigation guides and two-way radio communication, can the team rescue the injured hiker? The discovery team who finds the hiker must effectively communicate the trail for the rescue team to reach them. After the injuries are sorted with some basic first aid, they figure out how to transport the hiker back to base. A popular activity with primary-aged students.

Group-based activities that break the ice, encourage communication, teamwork and problem solving. A great way to build trust between students and can be a great first activity to kick off your camp. Suitable for all ages.

Spend an hour or four in the Hunua Ranges exploring the Falls, the Cossey Dam and the magnificent Kauris in all their glory.
