International Onsite Summer Sessions >What to Bring
Daily Living Items
- Families bring what is needed to be away from home for three weeks. The apartments available within walking distance and have basic cooking utensils. Children will want toys, books and games for playing after program hours. Childcare is not provided for children under 1st grade or over 6th grade.
- Dress at all times is casual for both parents and children. Summer clothing is appropriate. June weather is typically cool, especially during the morning and July can be warm. A sweater or light jacket could be useful for air conditioned indoors or evenings outdoors.
