5. Travel Considerations
Medications and illness while travelling
Students must carry all of their own medication and must not share any medication
Students must not purchase medication under any circumstances
Hand sanitiser and wipes
Water bottles and sharing
Room tidiness
Clothing & footwear
Conservative attire for formal places
Climate considerations – it is very hot
Hats are mandatory
Work wear that will get very dirty (dust masks x 10, work gloves x 3)
NO short shorts/strappy tops/crop tops/leggings/muscle shirts
I would ask that parents help student to pack appropriately to avoid arguments

6. Travel Considerations
Personal Safety
Student bahaviour
Limited discretionary time, mixed groups
Valuables should be kept to a minimum
Passports will be collected and held in a staff safe
Communication while we are traveling
Hotel WIFI
Blog posts
Emergency contact via the school
General bahaviour
The days are very long and tiring, the morning starts are early
Room checks at night
Personal shopping must be responsible
Spending money UD$300 is ample
Small denomination - $1, $2, $5, $10, $20 (larger will be more problematic)

7. Our Blog The blog has been prepared by Jeff and Mira
This is designed to be a place for students and teachers to reflect on our journey, the places we visit and the impact our experiences have on us.
Parents will be given password access
