Food on Friday: Please pack a healthy supper with a refillable bottle of water, in a small back pack, for Friday Evening. No food is to be consumed on the bus so we will stop for our pack lunches on the way and enjoy some hot grub and biscuits once we arrive. All meals after this will be provided.
We also request that you do not provide your child with any fizzy drinks or sweets/unhealthy snacks for the weekend. We will provide plenty of snacks throughout the weekend.

We would advise that all gear is labelled and packed entirely into one big bag and a small back pack is used for the bus. This saves space and confusion when sorting out who’s gear is who’s when we arrive.
