We'll be putting our phones on do not disturb this weekend!!

Because it's Patrol Formation Day! A logistical game of tetris, to fit everyone preferences in as best as possible, while also taking into account the Post Jamboree Tour (PJT), locations and experience! It's a lot of work!

It will take a few weeks to finalise Patrols so bear with us! Where possible your preferences will be accepted and we will do our best but cannot guarantee this.

In most situations if you are attending the PJT, your Jamboree and PJT Patrol will be the same. Wish us luck as we move forward through this part of our Contingent planning.

A small clarification - the due date of payment two was mistakenly advertised as Friday 13th of April.

This is incorrect, it is due MONDAY 13th of April. Our apologies for the mistake.

A Contingent wouldn't be complete without a badge, so without further ado...

Here is the official badge for the Australian Contingent to the 24th Aotearoa-New Zealand Jamboree!
