Camp Week

We leave for camp Wednesday morning and return Friday. Please help your child get organised. All the information is on our learning site, they can show you.  The weather looks like it is going to rain a bit so it may be wise to pack an extra set of clothes and a raincoat. We will endeavor to continue the programme, even in rain. 

Please remember to name all medication clearly and send along some home baking to share for morning and afternoon tea during camp.  Remember - no digital devices are to be taken to camp. I will have my phone should we need to contact parents.
