- Try to share transport so you can park close to the picnic site. The RUG (Really Useful Group) will be on hand to help you take your picnic to the lawns.
- The school will provide hot and cold water, so you might want to bring empty jugs or thermoses.
- Please BRING YOUR OWN GLASS for the free drink – it’s not the same in a teacup!
