Ready and Roaring

Only 17 days to the camp and we're so excited! We hope your children are as well!

When interacting with some parents, we realized that some of the participants have never been for any camps before! This is fair as most children only experience camps when they're Primary 5 and forced to go for their first school camp!

If you're one of these parents, rest assure your children will gain so much confidence they'll be wanting to go for more. For the rest of the parents, your children are in safe, experienced hands!

Anyway, here's a To Bring List just in case you don't already know!
