Junior CE Camp is organised by a team of Christians from a diverse range of background from throughout South Australia. This team works together to ensure that camp runs smoothly and safely.
Your child will join young people from across the state in games, craft, sport, worship, teaching, small group discussion and a camp talent night. Camp is held in the first week of January each year at Cornerstone College, Mount Barker.
Volunteers go through a thorough screening and selection process to ensure that they are suitable and are expected to attend training on the last weekend in November. Find out more about the process in the FAQ section for Volunteers.

Answers to common questions for parents of Junior Campers.
Where are volunteers from?
Junior CE Camp leaders come from many different churches from different denominations all around South Australia.
What training, experiences and checks do volunteers go through to work with my child?
All volunteers show an active involvement in a local Church community. We use a detailed leadership application form requiring two referees. This informs us of their experience and helps us gauge their suitability for camp.
Your child’s safety is important to us, which is why volunteers who have contact with children or young people through CE programs to have a Working with Children Check.
All volunteers complete Safe Environments Training and attend a training day prior to camp.
How is my child cared for on camp?
Your child’s Small Group Leader is their main support during camp. Small Groups spend a lot of time together – meal times, discussion time and some activities. This means their leader gets to know them well and are nearby if your child needs them.
Leaders are supported by the Volunteer Manager and Camp Director.
Can you accommodate children with special needs?
CE hopes to be as inclusive as we can with all potential campers.
Please contact the Junior Camp Director as early as possible to see how we might accommodate your child’s particular needs.
My child has to take medication each day. How is this managed?
All medications are collected at the start of camp and the distribution of medication is supervised by a First Aid Officer.
What if my child gets sick or injured on camp?
There is a first aid officer who will care for your child if they get sick. They are supported by other volunteers with First Aid Training for Schools and Centres.
In the event of an emergency we will contact you and follow the procedure as stated on the consent form.
How do I reach my child if I need to contact them in an emergency?
In the event of an emergency, please use the number provided on the camp confirmation letter.
Will volunteers contact my child after camp?
CE will only contact your child if you’ve said we can when you register.
We’d love to be able to keep your child up to date about future camps and other news and events.
If it’s ok with you, we’d also like to be able to help your child follow Jesus throughout the year.
Please contact us if you have any questions about volunteers contacting your child.
Oh dear! Have we missed something?
If we haven’t answered all your questions get in touch with us.
