​School Camps


​Below is the activities we can run for your school camp! All of the following activities can be adjusted for all ages and abilities. Our trained staff will create a programme specifically designed to meet your learning intentions for camp, and to make sure everyone has fun!

​
  • Tree Climbing- Climb to the top of the huge pine and gum tree on site at the Forest Camp then compete in our crazy milk crate stacking challenge. 

  • Rock Climbing- Goat Crag is just a 2.5km drive from the Forest Camp and has two great climbs up this challenging rock face. 

  • Mountain Biking- One of our most popular activities. Our instructors know the forest tracks like the back of their hands and will take you on a beautiful ride through the Hanmer Heritage Forest. We can also assist with NCEA Unit Standard and Achievement Standard assessments. 

  • Mission Impossible- Our problem solving team building challenge designed to suit all ages and abilities. 

  • Orienteering- Focused on map reading skills and managing self, students set off in teams into the Heritage Forest to collect as many points as they can. 

  • Bush Skills- Learn the ins of the outdoors! We cover natural shelter building, dressing for the outdoors, water collection and safety and make hot drinks on a Trangia Stoves.

  • Tramping/ Walking- Choose from one session trips like the Waterfall Walk or whole day trips like Mt Isobel.

  • Overnight Camp- For a real camping experience we will take you into our camp spot hidden in native bush. Cook your dinner on Trangia stoves, collect water from the stream, and sleep in a tent under the Hanmer Springs stars.

  • Stream Walk- Just a short drive over Jacks Pass is the Clarence River and Possum Gut Gorge. A memorable water experience for young people. Can be linked in with a tramp and overnight camp. 

  • Low Ropes- A challenging and fun team building activity. Hidden in the forest, work your way through a sequence of low rope activities.​
