Easier Group Camp Planning
CYC Blue Lagoon Makes Camp planning easier for group Leaders & coordinators
Traditionally the most frustrating part of organising camp is the administration: allocating rooms, organising special diets and arranging support for any medical or special need requirements. With our easy to use self-service portal this is a thing of the past, with group leaders now able to upload information to us easily as well as download important information such as Risk Assessments and compliance documentation.
Our program planning staff will liaise with your group leader to ensure that we meet your specific learning objectives. Through instructor-led outdoor education activities programmed to complement your own school program, or a full camp program with instructor-led outdoor education activities – from design through to implementation.
We look forward to working together with you to create a memorable experience for you and your members.

This camp experience strengthened our leadership team and gave us tools to support kids back home.”
As always, our kids were sad to leave Blue Lagoon and we had tears when we pulled up at school Friday afternoon as they wanted to just stay on camp!"
Returning to Blue Lagoon confirmed my thoughts that it really is the best facility on offer in Tas. The respect you show our staff and students and the professionalism of meal times and safety matters are outstanding."
Blue Lagoon was the BEST week of my life! I made friends, got messy, swam and even tried things I was scared of, like the giant swing.”
Leading at Blue Lagoon is one of the greatest privileges of my year — watching young people grow and belong is truly special.”
I saw my son step out of his shell and form friendships that have lasted months after camp. This team truly invests in young hearts.”
Blue Lagoon gave my daughter an experience she’ll never forget — full of fun, faith and friendships.”
Thanks again to all of you for providing such a great Camp environment, activities and just the people you all are. We absolutely love coming down each year and you are all so welcoming and accommodating with everything. We could not ask for a better Program."
For over 70 years, CYC has been a place where young people feel safe, supported, and truly seen. Our camps are more than just adventure and fun—they’re designed to help young people grow in confidence, build lasting friendships, and explore faith in a way that’s relevant to them.
We know that for some campers, home life can be challenging. That’s why we create an environment where every young person feels valued, heard, and supported. Surrounded by caring Christian leaders and fellow young believers, campers can ask big questions, explore their faith, and experience God’s love in a real and personal way.
With accredited facilities, trained staff, and a strong foundation in Christian values, CYC is a place where young people can step away from life’s pressures, find community, and discover hope for the future.
Safety is our top priority. Every CYC Limited facility is accredited by the Australian Camping Association (ACA) and the National Accommodation, Recreation and Tourism Accreditation (NARTA), both recognised by the Victorian Education Department. Our camps follow strict safety protocols to ensure a secure and supportive environment for all campers.
Our volunteers undergo extensive training and vetting before working at camp. Many have attended CYC camps themselves and are passionate about creating a safe, welcoming, and positive experience for young people. Adventure activity staff are certified and signed off by a Level 3 ropes course instructor and workplace trainer before leading any activities.
CYC has been running Christian youth camps for over 70 years, providing life-changing experiences for thousands of children and teens. With decades of expertise, we create an environment that balances fun, faith, and personal growth.
Every CYC adventure activity staff member is professionally trained and assessed by a Level 3 ropes course instructor and workplace trainer before leading activities. We also use industry-approved equipment and follow strict safety procedures to ensure all activities are run safely and professionally.
Every camp is led by a team of highly trained staff and carefully vetted volunteers. We maintain strict supervision ratios and ensure all leaders create a supportive, encouraging, and inclusive atmosphere for campers.
All camp staff are trained in first aid and emergency procedures, and our campsites are equipped with safety plans, emergency communication systems, and trained personnel on-site at all times. Parents can have peace of mind knowing that their child’s safety is always our highest priority.
CYC is a Christian organisation, and our core ministry focuses on faith-based Holiday Camps during school holidays. However, when hosting schools, corporate retreats, sports teams, or special interest groups, we are fully respectful of different beliefs and do not preach or provide religious instruction unless specifically requested by the group.
Our focus for all groups is to provide exceptional camp experiences in a welcoming and inclusive environment, ensuring that everyone enjoys their time without pressure or expectations around faith. If you have any concerns, we encourage an open conversation to tailor your camp experience to suit your group’s needs.
