HI Team,

Here's the gear list again for those of you who can't locate the notice I sent home.

Please have baking requirements sorted and have your child bring these to school either on Friday or Tuesday before their camp departure OR have the child bring them with them on the morning of departure in an ice-cream container.

What to bring:

Below is a list of clothing requirements for the trip.  The weather can be very changeable on the mountains so it is essential we are well prepared for adverse weather conditions. Friends, family and Trade me are affordable options if you are falling short of any clothing items.

• 2 x Merino (or polyprop) leggings
• 2 x Merino (or polyprop) long sleeved tops
• Jacket - Waterproof and windproof
