Camp

Camp is next week and I know from our discussions in class everyone is getting very excited to go! I am putting up the gear list for anyone who may have misplaced their copy :)

Please remember to name EVERYTHING - it makes clean up a lot easier if we can give any lost property straight back to the right person.

Also please remember to send your child with a washed out can for them to make damper in during one of their activities as well as a packet of biscuits or home baking for us all to enjoy for afternoon tea.

Gear list for Houghton's Bush Camp

Students may wear mufti clothes for travel to and from camp that are suitable for outdoor activities, which may include muddy or wet conditions.

We do have an alternate programme available if the weather is wet but we will endeavour to complete as much of our main programme as possible.

For bush activities, STUDENTS MUST WEAR SUITABLE FOOTWEAR (closed-in shoes). They may get dirty and wet so please don’t bring expensive shoes - old ones will be fine.

Have your child pack his/her gear with you so that they know what is in their bags and what gear they have brought with them.

The countdown is on!
