I have had several requests for another copy of the camp kit list- so I will publish it here so it is available any time you need it: I know it hasn't printed well, but it gives you the main idea. It should also be available on our school website.
| |
| CLOTHES - School uniform is to be worn to and from camp only, and stored in a plastic bag in between times, ensuring one clean change in which to return your child. | |

| 4-5 | t shirts/shirts |
| 4-5 | pairs of socks |
| 1 | jandals or slip ons to get to ablution block /around camp and inside wear. |
| 1 | pair of comfortable walking shoes – most likely these will get dirty |
| 1 | raincoat or jacket (Suggest “disposable” raincoat as well, if jacket is short) |
