Medical Children hand over medication to their group leader on arrival at the ferry port. Please label it clearly stating when it should be administered and the dosage, the best thing for this is the pharmacy label if there is one. Provide travel tablets for return journey. Asthmatics should keep their inhalers at all times but should still show their group leader on arrival. Our own first aid kit will cover most minor problems. There is an on-site first aider and a doctor on 24hr call out. NO CHILD WILL BOARD THE FERRY WITHOUT HAVING HANDED IN OR SHOWN THEIR MEDICATION!

Journals The children will be issued with a journal on arrival at Little Canada. They will be expected to complete each day’s record and get it checked by their activity group leader. Standards expected are high - this should be a great memento of their trip.
