Camp FAQ
Who can come to camp?
Any Sprout member aged 6 to 16. Kids, tweens and teens run as separate squads with their own leaders, and campers are grouped by age for sleeping and activities.
Does my child need to be a member already?
No — register right here on the page and we'll create the membership as part of sign-up. Leaders follow up before camp to confirm details.
How do payment and sibling discounts work?
A R150 deposit secures the place, with the balance due on arrival. Siblings get 20% off the second and third child, and hardship support is available — ask in confidence.
How do you handle medical needs and allergies?
The registration form captures medication, allergies and dietary needs. Our first-aid team holds the record, medication is locked and administered by leaders, and no prescribed medicine is given without written parent consent.
Can leaders contact me during camp?
Yes — the camp WhatsApp group opens two weeks before departure, and there is a duty phone on site for urgent parent contact at any hour.
What if we need to cancel?
Cancel before 28 November for a full refund of anything paid. After that, deposits transfer to the next camp edition if you let us know before departure day.
Hold your camper's place
Two minutes, one form. A camp leader confirms by WhatsApp before 28 November.
