Rain. There is little shelter in the event of heavy rain. If heavy rain is forecast, we may change the days at the last minute. If light rain is forecast, planting will go ahead. We will have raincoats available but students will need warm clothing, a second pair of shoes and socks, and a labelled plastic bag to put wet things in. Please wear normal school uniform
Food. Students need to provide their own food for the day, 2 x crunch and sip, and lunch. Students should bring a water bottle as there will be opportunities to refill them at Woodman Point. Please pack food and the water bottle in a labelled plastic bag, together with the second pair of shoes and socks if necessary.
