Multi-activity · Sports & Outdoor
A day at InterAction Belgium has a clear shape: the whole camp gathers for a morning and an evening meeting where there is singing together and an age-appropriate Bible talk, and dorm groups also meet for a short daily Bible study where campers can dig into some of the bigger questions. Everything in between is activity time, both on site in the château grounds and off site, and all of it is included in the camp fee. Campers do the week in dorm groups of four to eight, formed by gender and mother tongue and each looked after by two or three leaders, so the same small team plays, competes and talks together from start to finish. What makes the programme distinctive is that it all happens in two languages at once, French and English side by side, with leaders translating so nobody misses out. The choice of activities is refreshed each year according to availability, and the organisers keep it broad enough to suit everybody while saving a few surprises for the week itself. There is no expectation of a church background: anyone is welcome, and the meetings and activities are pitched for campers whatever their starting point.

Dorm groups organised by gender
Campers are looked after in small dorm groups of between four and eight, and every dorm has two or three leaders attached to it, so there is always a familiar adult close by from wake-up to lights-out. The leaders are volunteers, committed Christians who give up their own holiday to be on camp, and they are chosen to match the languages in the group so that every camper has someone who speaks their mother tongue and can explain what is happening. Groups are formed by gender and by mother tongue, which keeps the youngest and least confident campers among people they can talk to easily. With around 50 to 80 campers on each camp, the leadership team stays a visible, hands-on presence through meetings, dorm Bible studies and the whole day's activities.
Accommodation & campus

Bedrooms
Shared bedrooms
Dormitories
Campers sleep at the Château de Courrière, sharing dormitories in small groups of between four and eight. Dorm groups are put together by gender and by mother tongue, so your child shares with peers who speak their own language, and each dorm has two or three leaders attached to it who sleep on camp and look after the group. The dorm is more than a bedroom: it is the unit for the short daily Bible study and much of the day's team life, which is why friendships tend to form quickly within it.
Château in the countryside of Courrière, province of Namur
Camp is held at the Château de Courrière on Rue Bâtis de Corère in the province of Namur, a real castle with grounds that become the backdrop for a week of games, high-ropes, climbing and evenings around a campfire. Each camp welcomes around 50 to 80 campers, small enough that everyone quickly knows everyone, and the château provides the dormitories as well as the rooms where the whole camp gathers each morning and evening. The grounds host the wide games and team challenges the leaders dream up, and the building itself gets drawn in, since campers have been known to parachute an egg out of a château window. Some activities take place on site and others take the group off site into the surrounding area.

Drop-off at the Château de Courrière

Accompanied group travel from Brussels
Pickup service · If you would rather not drive, campers can join the InterAction group in Brussels and travel to camp and back by train with leaders accompanying them the whole way, which suits families arriving from further afield or from abroad. This option is available for both Camp A and Camp B and is chosen at sign-up, as it is charged as a supplement on top of the camp fee. Leaders meet the group at the station in Brussels and stay with the campers until they are handed over to parents on the return journey.
