PARENT HELPERS NEEDED
Parents are an essential and valuable resource on our EOTC experiences. We need a number of parents & caregivers per camp who enjoy the outdoors and are willing to be involved with student activities - all parent helpers are expected to supervise the activities and follow health and safety regulations..... if this sounds like something you'd be a good fit for, we'd love to have you!
If you want to be a parent helper, please complete this google form https://forms.gle/wjHLmfnBL4Nz2SFcA before 3pm Friday 01 May 2026.
We will then collate all offers of interest, hold a ballot for each camp if needed, and confirm parent/caregivers going on camp via email. Please note that once confirmed, all parent helpers will be required to complete NZ Police Vetting.
