					Contributions and Equipment/Stationery
										
To cover costs (food, camping fees, outside provider costs) while away on field trips we ask for a $50 contribution towards these costs. Also it would help if students have their own boots, thermals, fleece jacket/jumper and raincoat - but if not the Outdoor Education department has a selection that students can borrow.
