Re: Cefn Lea Camp – Summer 2017 Dear Parents/Guardians,
We will be meeting on Monday 10th July at 9.00am at the Hope church, Watson Street, Oswaldtwistle and aim to return for no later than 3.00pm on Friday 14th July. We meet at the Hope church because there is more space, however, your child can arrive at Rhyddings and they will then be escorted over to the centre by a member of staff. We will be travelling to Cefn Lea by coach and stopping on the way so can you please ensure your child has a packed lunch or money to buy lunch. We hope to arrive at the site around 2.00pm. We are really looking forward to camp this year and have an action packed week planned. Most of the activities require casual clothing which is practical and inexpensive. They will also need clothes and footwear that will get wet. The cabins have their own kitchens and basic cooking utensils. For more information about the facilities take a look at the website: www.cefnlea.co.uk The address of Cefn Lea is: Cefn Lea Park Dolfor Newtown Powys SY16 4AJ Telephone: 01686 625275 The amount of pocket money taken is at the parent/guardians discretion and it is the sole responsibility of the student to look after their own money. Any valuables the students bring with them are at their own risk, staff cannot be held responsible for looking after mobile phones etc. Can parents also note that mobile reception is limited on site but there is a pay phone which students can use.
Medical issues will be dealt with by Qualified First Aiders, Mr Breckell and Miss Hargreaves. You will not be contacted for minor injuries but will be informed if anything serious occurs. Students will need to bring the following:
Towels and toiletries Plenty of everyday clothing Sleeping bag and pillow Optional food/snacks Waterproof coat and optional clothing for wet activities Any required medication Sun tan lotion Suitable footwear Torch Optional spending money Smart/casual clothes for Prom night
Due to limited luggage space available on the coach we ask that each student only bring one small case/bag and one item of hand luggage. If you have any further enquiries please do not hesitate to contact the school. With regards, Mr. Fielding (Trip organizer) Mrs. Bell (Trip organizer) Mr. Breckell Miss Hargreaves
