MORFA BAY 2024 KIT LIST Children will need to be involved in packing their own things, so they know exactly what they have with them! We have included a checklist that you can use whilst packing together and if you pop a spare copy of your child’s list in with their luggage it may help ensure that they bring it all back home too!

We will be  OUTSIDE ALL day EVERY day Each child will be issued with their own personalised MORFA BAY HOODIE! Please could all children wear these for our outward bound journey!

You may include a small amount of face glitter/flowers if your child wishes to go fully festive! For the MUDDY ASSAULT COURSE – Children will need a separate, labelled carrier bag of OLD CLOTHES that can be THROWN-AWAY upon our return. It is also a good idea to pack a separate, labelled carrier bag containing clean, dry, comfy CLOTHES for your child’s return journey OPTIONAL EXTRAS Waterproof trousers – in the event of a rainy week these would be handy! 1 Teddy /cuddly toy Stamped, addressed postcard (to be written and sent home) A magazine to read – children like to share these in their Dorms Card games (UNO, Dobble etc …) or a sketch pad and pencils etc… many children like to cosy up and gather round the fire in the den in their free time to play games or draw/colour.
