Beechworth Camp What to bring and weather update

Hello everyone

We are very excited about camp this week!

Looking at the Bureau of Meteorology forecast for Beechworth things are looking good weather wise. The rain forecast for the first half of the week should have passed by Tuesday night.

Even so, it is expected to be below 20 degrees each day so please keep that in mind when your children are organising their packing.

The 'what to bring' list is copied below for your convenience.
Thanks
