We are anticipating another precious and encouraging time with our highschoolers at this year’s Summer School of Truth. The purpose of this letter is to provide you with important information about this time, and the registration process.
Dates and Location
This year’s Summer School will commence with registration from 5 p.m. on Friday 26 December 2025 followed by dinner at 6 p.m.
We will conclude after lunch and clean up on Friday 2 January 2026, 1:30 p.m.
The Summer School will be held at: Christian Youth Camps (CYC) Ngaruawahia, Camp 1, 148 Waingaro Road, Ngaruawahia.
Application & Registration Information
All saints wishing to attend the Summer School of Truth will go through an application process. This will involve filling out an online form by Thursday 27 November 2025.
The purpose of the application process is:
- To ensure all highschoolers and serving ones gain the maximum benefit from the camp.
- To ensure we have a 4:1 ratio of highschoolers to serving ones. This will help with the atmosphere and provide the necessary shepherding for the highschoolers from your locality.
After this deadline, a list of applications will be sent to the serving ones in your locality for their consideration and approval. Successful applicants will be notified about the outcome of their application by Thursday 4 December 2025.
The serving ones in your locality will consider the following points when approving an applicant for Summer School:
- Highschoolers who apply for Summer School should have attended high school this year, have a positive attitude, and be willing to participate in every aspect of the Summer School. They should also be able to accept and abide by the camp expectations provided in this letter.
- Serving ones who apply should have a desire and burden to serve. They are expected to stay onsite and serve for the duration of the Summer School.
Once approved, the applicant will receive an email informing them how to make payment for Summer School. Payment will complete their registration.
