Please see Mr. Baker if you have any queries or problems acquiring any of these items. Please remember that most of these are items are essential for the activities to be undertaken on this trip.
All pupils’ luggage will be transported to and from Dolawen on the minibus roof racks; therefore, everything needs to be packed inside black bags inside your holdalls or rucksacks.
