Time keeping - So we can settle everyone and start promptly we need everyone to arrive and register at their allocated time slot. Late arrivals may not be allowed to enter until the break.

Registration - Full joining instructions will be provided in your booking confirmation and prior to the event, giving time slot allocations.

Mobile phones - We kindly request your child does not bring a mobile phone. If your child needs to have a mobile phone, please ensure it is turned off, not set to silent as even vibrations can be distracting.
