Students will be leaving school at 9:00 am and returning to school by 3:00 pm. They will wear their PE gear, sports shoes and socks, and a jacket. We recommend a towel/change of clothes in case of wet weather as the event will go ahead even when there is slight rain.
Students and helpers will also need their own full lunch and a drink. There are no facilities for purchasing food or drink onsite. Each trip requires 2-3 helpers per class. If you volunteer, you will be sent an email to confirm your assistance is required.
