Kids Connect is a camp specifically for children with physical and mild intellectual disabilities aged 9—16 (Individual consideration given to those over the age of 16). It is held in Blockhouse Bay, Auckland. Occasionally, we require meeting a child before camp to ensure we are able to meet their needs during the camp. Acceptance is not automatic, but at the discretion (自行决定权) of the camp director.

Our camps are conducted by experienced staff. We take every effort to give your children a safe and enjoyable weekend. Our aim is that every child comes away with lasting memories of what they have experienced, explored and enjoyed at our camp.

We focus on building strong, healthy relationships with other children (with and without physical disabilities) and with group leaders.

We have a weekend packed full of activities, action and fun.

●Team games and competitions, songs

●Orienteering (定向越野) on a wheelchair accessible track

●Quad bikes (四轮摩托车)

●Craft

●Discussions, great food and loads of fun!

The camp fee is approximately $135 (subject to change). We also accept payment by way of Ministry of Health career support forms.

Day visits and rates can be organized on an individual basis if a full weekend stay is unsuitable.
