Our campsite are designed for comfort, convenience and adventure, offering spacious group accommodations, fully catered meals and a range of onsite activities—so everything you need is in one place.

CYC is a Christian organisation and our core ministry focuses on faith-based Holiday Camps during school holidays. However, when hosting schools, corporate retreats, sports teams, or special interest groups, we are fully respectful of different beliefs and do not preach or provide religious instruction unless specifically requested by the group.
Our focus for all groups is to provide exceptional camp experiences in a welcoming and inclusive environment, ensuring that everyone enjoys their time without pressure or expectations around faith. If you have any concerns, we encourage an open conversation to tailor your camp experience to suit your group’s needs.
We believe a great camp experience shouldn’t break the budget. Our all-inclusive packages provide high-quality facilities, expert-led activities and full catering at a cost-effective rate. With experience managing large group logistics, we maximise value while keeping pricing fair and transparent.
Schools are requested to supply at least one water qualified staff person to supervise the pool activities. However if this is not possible, arrangements can be made in advance for CYC Limited staff, or outside providers (at an additional cost) to supervise the pool. A minimum of two staff and a ratio of 1- 10 is the minimum required.
Where required Boom Gates control all vehicle movements and while staff and delivery vehicles are permitted in some areas of each facility, in all cases the guests enjoy right of way. Speeds are limited to walking pace only. All relevant road rules apply.
Boom gates are used at several sites along with other speed restricting devices to ensure compliance.
This would fall under part of each facility’s emergency plan. All campers are made aware of the emergency evacuation procedures upon arrival at camp. Refer resource page.
All CYC Ltd facilities have an accreditation approved emergency plan for many contingencies. Refer resource page.
While instructors have the technical knowledge and expertise to instruct students and other guests, the teachers/group leaders continue to have the responsibility for the general safety, welfare and behaviour, at all times.
Each CYC facility has a 24-hour caretaker or assistant who lives on site.
All sites hold current local Health Department certificates for Prescribed Accommodation and Registration of Food Premises.
