What should you bring to camp? –
Bring a packed lunch and drink. Don’t forget we have a short break as well as a lunch break so you might want a snack for the first break.
Don’t wear your best clothes. If it is cold or wet bring a coat. If possible we will go outside to play at break time.
Apply sun screen before you arrive if it is sunny and bring more if you think you will need to reapply it.
