At El Rancho we run several of our own programmes throughout the year. The most popular are our 5-day school holiday camps. We also host weekend camps for children, families and church leaders.

Give your kids a week away – somewhere they can be challenged, have fun, yet be safe.

During school holiday periods we run programmes for kids from 9-12 years. Check our Events Calendar to find out when these camps are available in each school holiday. These residential camps are packed with activities and games, and include a guest communicator who shares the Gospel message and stories from the Bible. On-site leaders provide 24 hour care and supervision and a nurse is on hand for scrapes, bruises or medical needs.

At our children's camps we have an average of one leader to every four campers. This provides close supervision of activities and lots of personal attention to the needs of individual children.
