What To Pack

Bedding

  • Sleeping Bag or bedding.
    One blanket is supplied for each bed, but extra warmth is strongly advised.

  • Sheets - due to health regulations, even if you are using a sleeping bag, a sheet is required to cover the mattress.

  • Pillowcase - one pillow is on each bed

Clothing

The weather at Hazelbrook is unpredictable and it has even been known to snow! Please ensure your child has WARM clothing available to them. We cannot stress how important this is! While days can be warm, the nights get very chilly, so it important to have a range of options for your child.

  • A set of clothes for each day!
    General holiday clothing is recommended - tracksuits, shorts, t-shirts, skivvies, socks, jeans, sloppy joes, jumpers etc.
    PLEASE DO NOT SENT GOOD CLOTHING AS THIS IS DEFINITELY A WEEK FOR COMFORTABLE AND STURDY GEAR!

  • Messy Games Clothes
    Be sure to bring some old clothes for our games afternoon as you may get grubby.

  • Shoes - at least THREE pairs of comfortable shoes - waterproof.
    Thongs will not be accepted as shoes for daily activities.
    It is also a good idea to bring along a pair of sturdy shoes that will get muddy on the bushwalk.

  • A change of underwear for each day

  • Warm PJs.
    Nights are FREEZING COLD!!!

  • Warm jackets/jumpers

  • Raincoat or waterproof jacket

  • Clothes for “Dress Up” night.
    In 2024 we have a spy theme! We look forward to seeing everyone dressed up as top secret spies and people in disguise! Have fun :)

  • PLEASE DO NOT PACK ANY EXTRA FOOD FOR CAMP.
    There is no need as we are fed three wholesome and nutritious home cooked meals each day as well as being provided with delicious morning teas, afternoon teas and suppers. There is always a large fruit bowl readily available for campers who might need extra food during the day.

  • PLEASE DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD WITH ELECTRONICS including mobile phones, smartwatches, iPods, game consoles etc. as this presents extra security risks for the camp. If found, these items will be confiscated for the week. You can be assured that if a problem occurs at any time during the week you will be contacted at either of the two emergency numbers recorded on your registration form.
