Residential Summer Camps - What to Bring
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!
