It’s that time of year again that we have our amazing summer kids clubs.
 

The drop off time each day is between 8.30am - 9.00am, each day you arrive at the conference centre reception and sign your child / children in with the team. You will need to have your completed consent form with you on day one or you can email it into Knockburn the week before the club.

Child collection is between 3.30pm – 4.00pm each day. We must close down the site and leave by 4.15pm so we kindly request that prompt collection by 4.00pm is adhered to.

 

Equipment :

Children are required to have a change of clothing and if possible, waterproofs, plus an old pair of trainers, if they have walking boots then those will be perfect. A small day sac is required too as we intend to get out walking during the week.

Our intention is always to get as much time on the water as we can, so if your child’s has their own wetsuits already that’s ideal, if not then we will provide one for the children.
You will need to bring neoprene shoes / boots or an old pair of trainers that that you are happy that they get wet while out on the Loch.
Parents are asked to make up all children’s items with a name label and ensure on a daily basis that they have gathered up all of their child’s belongings.
 

Food / Lunch :
A packed lunch required plus morning and afternoon snacks for each day. Children need to have drinks so a water bottle with their name on it is ideal.
 

Medical :
Please ensure you make the team aware of any allergies or medical information this can be done on the consent form but we would also ask that you do this verbally on the first morning of the club.  Please ensure you bring items such as Inhalers & medicines and they are clearly marked with your child’s name.
Once the children arrive home after a day of the kid's club, parents are required to check for Ticks on a daily basis.
