Living Springs - Bellbird Heights

We will be staying in the Bellbird Heights Bunkrooms. Here is some information from the Living Springs website:
Shared/bunkrooms (sleep 24) Also part of the Bellbird Heights facility is a recently refurbished bunkhouse containing 6 comfortable and spacious rooms with 4 bunks in each. These rooms have shared bathroom and laundry facilities. The bunkhouse is situated adjacent to a large conference/ meeting / living room with a large fully equipped kitchen. |

Transport
We will be using parent transport to travel to and from camp. Here is a map of the route we will take. We will be stopping at the public toilets beside the Lincoln Library on the way if we need to. When Room 2 arrives we will be met in Governors Bay to start our walk in to camp. Room 1 will drive right into camp in time for morning tea on Wednesday.
Costs:
Unfortunately due to there being no fundraising tagged for this during 2017 we are having to charge the full camp cost back to parents this year.
Room 2 Charge: $205
Room 1 Charge: $70
We are busy fundraising using our School Cuts promotion to cover the fuel costs for parents who transport children. If there is any money remaining after paying fuel costs then it will be credited across all student accounts. As costs are greater than in previous years the school is happy to absorb the cost initially and offer parents the ability to pay the camp costs over the four school terms. For Room 2 children this will be three payments of $50 and one of $55. For Room 1 children this will be thee payments of $20 and one payment of $10.
Please contact Cheryl on accounts@windwhistle.school.nz if you would like to take advantage of the payment option or would like to arrange an alternative payment plan. Our bank account for payment is: 020868 0093440 00 Windwhistle School, please use your child's name, surname and the word CAMP as reference.
