Due to the environmental conditions and the nature of the activities the students will participate in, the equipment and clothing that the students take to Australia is particularly important. There are two lists of equipment and clothing, both are mandatory and should be followed closely. 

Weather conditions in Australia

It will be winter in Australia during RoP and as such the weather conditions will be very different to Hong Kong in July and August. The average temperature range for July and August in the programme areas is from 0-25 ℃, with humidity levels of between 50-65%. It is particularly cold in the mornings, but the temperature normally increases quickly as the sun rises between 0700 and 0830. The students will adjust quickly to these conditions and programme activities will be adjusted accordingly if unexpected colder conditions occur. Parents are asked to pay special attention to the equipment and clothing with regards to the weather.
