What is "Youth"?
Our Youth Group is designed to provide a safe and welcoming space where rangatahi can be themselves and have fun while reflecting on their life journeys. We believe that teenagers should feel supported and empowered to lead in a community that promotes positive lifelong faith and growth. Our Youth Group is a fun mix of mess, laughter, and adventure. Come along and check us out!
Youth activities are 3 on-site and 1 offsite each month. All Youth are required to have an Extended Activities Permission Form signed and returned before going on offsite activities. Other special events will require their own forms signed and returned. Your child will receive these forms as they attend.
Youth are expected to follow the same rules of conduct they follow at High School. However while rangatahi are encouraged to remain onsite during the program, it is always their choice to leave if they wish to. It is the responsibility of parents to ensure that their children remain accountable to them and to inform our Youth Pastor of their preferences.
Health & Safety
ATTENTION PARENTS & GUARDIANS!
Things you should know before your child attends
Youth are required to provide emergency contact details for themselves. These are used in emergencies and to keep parents / guardians updated of upcoming Youth events. They receive these updates via txt/sms from the Youth Pastor, who can be reached at any time during Youth activities.

ANNUAL EVENT
Northern Easter Camp
Get excited, the highlight of the Youth calendar is back! This epic four-day event is filled with inspiring messages, amazing worship, awesome activities, competitive sports, and a whole lot of good times. We’ll sort your tents, meals, and transportation, so pack your bags, grab your mates, and get ready to have a blast.
Easter camp takes a lot of volunteers and funding to run, so there's no guarantee that we can attend this year. Ask your Youth Pastor for the latest updates.
