Clothing, shoes & accessories

• Tracksuits, leggings, fleeces & combats, shorts & t-shirts - layers work best. Kids will get wet and mucky, so old clothes are ideal. Jeans are not suitable for activities. 
• Shorts must be long sports shorts that cover the thigh to prevent rope burn and chaffing from equipment during activities. No cut-off or designer shorts.
• Rain jacket & trousers – it will rain!
• Woolly hat, gloves & warm socks – useful even in the summer months.
• Two pairs of trainers/runners for activities – one to keep dry and one to get wet.
• Comfortable clothes & pair of runners, sandals or crocs - for wearing in the evening after activities & travelling home.
• Two sets of swimwear – for water activities. A nylon thermal top is useful but not essential. Wetsuits are provided. 
• Nightwear & underwear – enough for the whole stay!
• Sunhat/baseball cap & sunglasses – for sunny days.
• Plastic bags x 2 – essential for wet and muddy clothes. 
• A net laundry bag – for pre-booked laundry service. 

Towels & toiletries 

• Towels x 4  – two for dorm room & two for activities.
• Toiletries – toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, deodorant etc. There are no toiletries sold on-site. 
• Sunscreen & lip balm – because the sun does come out!
• Insect repellent, midge net and antihistamine cream for bites – midges can be very annoying in the summer months.
• Medication – please bring any regular medication needed.

Other useful items

• Water bottle 
• Small backpack – lightweight backpack to carry water, towel, swimwear, for daily activities. 
• Watch – an inexpensive watch can be useful as mobile phone time is limited.
• Spending money - €20 to €30 cash or a prepaid card, and some €1.00 coins for the pool table. We recommend that kids do not bring large amounts of money or valuables.
• List of personal items - A checklist of all personal items so that nothing is left behind. Very useful for packing to go home!
