What is Ignite Summer Camp?

Summer Camp is four massive days of fun, friends and getting closer to Jesus! It is about kicking off the year on a massive high with your friends and finding your place within God’s love. Summer Camp is run by Ignite Youth from Brisbane and is open to all students who will be high school age (year 7 to 12) in 2025. You can find out more information about Summer Camp online at https://igniteyouth.com/summercamp. Check out a promo for this year’s camp below.

Details for 2025

Summer Camp is being held at QCCC Mapleton in the Sunshine Coast, which is a wonderful venue. The camp runs from the 9th to the 12th of January, however our group has organised to travel down on the 8th of January and spend an extra night at the campsite, so we are ready to begin the next morning. Our group will have transport arranged to leave from Rockhampton, Benaraby & Gin Gin. If there is enough interest from other areas, then it may be possible to make further arrangements so please get in touch if transport is an issue.

This will be the fifth year in a row that we have taken a group from our diocese. The students who have attended previously had heaps of fun, made new friends, and learnt more about themselves and the Catholic faith. The camp is very well run by an experienced group of leaders, and I believe it is one of the best Catholic youth programs on offer for high school students. If you have any questions or want more information, please don’t hesitate to contact me using the contact details provided above.
