Waiouru Military Camp is a camp of the New Zealand Army in the central North Island of New Zealand near Waiouru.
All New Zealand Army soldiers complete their initial basic training, the All Arms Recruit Course (AARC), at Waiouru Military Camp. The camp is also the site of the army marae. The marae is the home of Ngāti Tūmatauenga, literally 'the tribe of the God of War', the Māori name for the New Zealand Army.
