Welcome to Port Waikato School Camp

Discover the perfect place for adventure, learning, and lifelong memories. At Port Waikato School Camp, we combine stunning natural surroundings with exciting activities to create an unforgettable experience for schools and groups. Whether you’re here for outdoor education, team building, or just a great time away, our riverside location and dedicated team make every stay special.

There is a lot of information for all group types on this site.  Please take your time to look around. It is our intention to provide most of the information you may need right here. If you think there is something missing, please let us know through the feedback form. 

Please enjoy this short video made by Paul Smith. Paul took a lot of time and effort to produce this and managed to perfectly blend the past of the camp with the camp of today.


If getting our kids out into nature is a search for perfection, or is one more chore, then the belief in perfection and the chore defeats the joy. It’s a good thing to learn more about nature in order to share this knowledge with children; it’s even better if the adult and child learn about nature together. And it’s a lot more fun.
