About KCO
KCO is an overnight camp for kids who are 7 years old to in Year 7. It is a major Uniting Church SA discipleship opportunity at two sites across SA including Victor Harbor and Eyre Peninsula. KCO aims to assist kids to explore faith through their own discovery, encouraging sharing and relationships with their peers. At KCO kids enjoy a wide range of performances, activities, games, worship and music, based around a central theme. The theme aims to teach the campers about Jesus' life and teachings, in a manner that is understandable, appropriate to their context and, of course, incredibly fun.
