TIMINGS: The course runs between 11am Saturday morning to 12.30 pm on Sunday

Shelter and sleep arrangements – Families will build their own shelter from branch poles and heavy duty tarpaulins. We will check shelters for safe construction and weatherproofness ahead of use.

Fire – We have a permanent campfire in the eating shelter for cooking plus smaller fires are lit for teaching purposes using various fire lighting techniques (fire steel, flint and steel, friction fire lighting).

Food – We will provide drinking water, fruit cordials, hot drinks, snacks and biscuits as needed.  Please bring your own packed lunch for the midday meal on the first day. We will provide an evening meal (sausages, potatoes and beans) and breakfast cereal, toast and fruit. Please bring along any additional snacks and food you think you may need (we will not be offended if your child doesn’t like our food but please provide an alternative so they don’t go hungry!).
