One of the questions we are asked most often is what do I need to bring. So to help you we’ve put together a packing list.
Summer School life is casual and relaxed. You’ll be doing lots of different activities and spending time outside, but do remember that British weather can be changeable. It’s important to bring clothing suitable for warm weather, and then also for cooler days and possibly rain.
We will provide a laundry service for you once a week.
