ESL Summer Camp in Vancouver Packing List
Just remember not to pack too much….think about the souvenirs you are going to take back home AND you really don’t want to have to haul a heavy bag around an airport. You will have access to laundry and if you don’t know how to use it, a teacher or counsellor will teach you.
This list is a suggestion of things to take along. If you do not have everything on the list, it might be necessary to buy these things. It would be a good idea to have your name written on your belongings just in case you misplace them; that way lost items can be returned to the student. Please remember not to take expensive clothes that might be damaged during the recreational activities.
Everything is included in the camp cost. All activities, all food, everything. The only thing you will need pocket money for is souvenirs and an junk food. Wynchemna does not supply any junk food for students. We maintain that students should eat healthy all the time. We recommend that students bring between $300 and $500 Canadian dollars in pocket money (plus a $100 deposit that should be given to the co-ordinator of the course upon arrival).
