Contact
Email first. WhatsApp once you are in.
We would rather not live in an inbox. After you are accepted, install WhatsApp — that is how the student group talks. Until then, email is the door.
Where
Campbell Park Estate, Waitaki Valley, South Island
Flights should aim at Christchurch. We collect you there.
Time
New Zealand is UTC+12, and UTC+13 from late September to early April. When it is morning at base camp, it is still the previous evening in the United Kingdom and North America. Sydney is about two hours behind us for much of the year.
There is a student group. You are added after your place is confirmed — we do not publish the chat on the open internet. Email remains the backup if an app fails.
