Safety, behaviour and valuables All students will be covered by a fully comprehensive insurance policy 24 hour emergency contact is available to all parents Iceland is an expensive country. Bring no more that £50 in local currency but be warned your money won’t go far! My advice is no mobile phones, tablets, expensive cameras, games consoles, etc. These may not be covered on the group insurance policy Poor behaviour will result in students being requested to leave Iceland at the expense of parents/ guardians Zero alcohol and drug policy. You will be reported to the local police and removed from the trip
