the camp's beds (i.e. 75 beds). For groups less than this the

the camp but will endeavor to ensure they are compatible. Smaller
groups are welcome to pay an additional fee to ensure exclusive
use.

the application form but may be sumarised as "the closer
to the actual booking date that the cancellation occurs the higher
the cancellation fee".
The
minimum group size for a catered camp is 15 people.
Self
catering is only available for groups of less than 15 people.
Public
liability insurance cover is required to be held by groups booking
Camp Banksia. A copy of a certificate of currency needs to be
sighted by the manager before commencement of the camp. Please
contact the manager if there is a problem with this requirement.
A
person responsible for first aid needs to be nominated by the
group and the group must supply its own first aid kit. The camp
has its own first aid resources but these are intended for staff
use and as a back-up to the group's needs.

conditions of use are attached to the booking application form.
