Camp Info/Reminders

Thank you to all the parents who have offered to help out on our camp. Great to have your support as I know it can be difficult to get time off with work and family commitments. We will be leaving school at around 9:30 on Monday morning, but the students arrive at school at the normal time with their gear for camp.

Listed below are some reminders.

· Please ensure your child has the necessary gear including lunch for the first day and adequate clothing. (It could be cold so the need appropriate clothing and bedding)

· All clothing and property must be named

· Students should not bring valuables or lollies to camp

· Students and parents who are providing transport need to be here by 9:15 on they day of departure.

· Parents/caregivers staying overnight will need to bring their own sleeping gear. There are cabins with mattresses available.

· If your child requires an inhaler, please ensure they have this with them.

· Any medication should be labeled with instructions and given to me for safe keeping.

Parents/caregivers who want to come and visit us at camp are
more than welcome. You will find the camp by turning left at
Waihola on the road to Taieri Mouth. The camp is approximately
1km along this road, turning right up the hill. The camp buildings
are clearly visible from the road.
