Nicole Fragar

Hi! I am a farmer and wool classer with a love of God. I grew up in a Christian home, and at about 6 yrs made a personal commitment to God. At age 16, I chose to be baptised to show others that I had decided to follow Him and wanted Him in control of my life. I have been involved in primary kids camps for a few years now, helped organise church picnics, have led on several different high-school camps. Matt and I would love to see this camp continue to grow, honour God, and become a great place for high schoolers to come and hear the Gospel.

Matthew Frankham

I'm just a local Boilermaker and Youth Leader. My walk started when I was 15, I grew up in a non-Christian family and found Christ through a friend who I respect a lot. I have led on camps and missions before and was a part of the Organising of Nyngan's Local Youth Group. This isn’t my first time directing a camp, but Nicole and I still maintain a lot of support from Scripture Union and experienced team members. I've got a passion for running activities for young people and although this camp is only young my hope is that it can grow into something really great.

• All participants are encouraged to complete a Rapid Antigen Test, either at home or upon arrival. Anyone who is a close or household contact will be not be able to attend camp.
• All participants' health will be monitored throughout camp.
• If a participant develops any COVID-19 like symptoms while on camp, participants will be isolated and asked to complete a Rapid Antigen Test.  If positive, Parents/Carers will be contacted to collect their children.
• Masks will be recommended during inside activities, with the exception of eating times.
• SUNSW will keep records for all participants to enable contact tracing in the event of a participant having a positive test within 7 days of camp.
• In the event of the camp needing to be cancelled due to COVID19 all participants will receive a full refund

Yes, just tell them to register online or contact the Camp Director for any further information.

Part of the camper registration process is to inform us of any medical conditions or requirements your child might have that could impact their time at camp. Our First Aid officers are equipped to administer medication as stipulated by you at registration. If the camp has any questions regarding the medical requirements they will contact you prior to the camp beginning.

All SUNSW Camps have Senior First Aid qualified leaders who will deliver first-response treatment in the event of an injury or illness. A decision is then made about whether further medical attention is needed and if the camper needs to visit a medical centre or hospital. Scripture Union NSW or the Camp Director will contact the emergency contact parent as soon as possible if outside medical attention is required and if there are any major incidents that occur.

Prior to camp, you will receive a ‘camp information pack’ by email with all the details of what your child will need to bring to camp. Drop off and pick up times and location of the camp will also be included.

Each day of camp features a short, age-appropriate Bible presentation and small group time for campers to talk about issues in greater depth and ask questions about God, life and everything.

You will be expected to participate in all aspects of the camp to make it as enjoyable as possible for everybody. We will be helping each other to the best of our abilities including contributing to serving and packing away at mealtimes.

A team of energetic, committed, Christian Leaders look after the campers throughout camp. All leaders are reference-checked, trained in child protection procedures and have completed government child protection requirements. In addition to adult leaders, a number of Camps involve Junior Leaders who will get right alongside your child throughout the week.

SU NSW Camps and their volunteers hold a strong commitment to the well-being of everyone who participates in our camps. We operate under Scripture Union guidelines and strive to stay in line with and even ahead of the standards that are in place for the camping industry.
