Because we are traveling, baggage space is limited, and careful packing is essential. Each girl can bring up to TWO bags— 1 Duffle for bedding, and 1 Suitcase, EACH BAG UP TO 50 POUNDS— plus a backpack carry-on. For girls traveling on the Group flight, El Al policy is first bag free and second bag $115. Please make sure to factor in the baggage fee before we travel. Also, at certain times, girls will be expected to carry their own luggage, so please DO NOT OVERPACK!
Make sure that (A) EVERY item of clothing meets our tznius requirements (Mothers, please supervise carefully), and (B) that you like everything you are bringing! Please remember that everyday clothing MUST be easy to move in — you can’t do a movement class in a straight pencil skirt or long, heavy denim! We do rigorous movement in EVERY class, including acting and voice, so you must be able to move freely (and b’tznius) at all times.
Cosmetics and toiletries are expensive in Israel. However, should your daughter prefer to purchase shampoo and soap, etc. in Tzfat, there is a pharmacy very nearby.
