This will be replaced by the normal price on a date to be notified - we don’t want everyone registering the day before the early bird rate stops – it helps us greatly to get a feel for numbers sooner than later which is why we have introduced this rate. Our advice is register NOW! Should you wish to purchase more than one uniform you may – just contact the office once you have registered.

  4. Airfare Options There are three options for travel to and from Melbourne for Junior Carnival Flights are booked through Maccabi NSW by checking the option on the sign on form for flights to be included. We will then organize a seat on our group flight for your child You can book a seat on our group flight using your own points or by booking directly yourself if you feel you can get a better price. All participants who travel on our flights will be under our supervision. Check for flights as these details are not included on the sign on form. You can make your own travel arrangements but we cannot be responsible for your child on these flights and it will be up to them to ensure they arrive on time and at any pre-arranged meeting spots should it be possible. We don’t prefer this option unless they are travelling with family who are staying in Melbourne over this period. Check for flights as these details are not included on the sign on form. IF YOU ARE BOOKING YOUR OWN FLIGHTS PLEASE EMAIL YOUR FLIGHT DETAILS TO info@maccabi.com.au ONCE YOU HAVE CONFIRMED YOUR FLIGHTS

  5. Uniforms Uniforms must be worn at: Opening ceremony All sporting days Shabbat service (compulsory for all attendees- uniform shirt must be worn with suitable bottom) Community Day The NSW uniform is the same as previous carnivals and can be used at Melbourne carnival again The NSW Team Management will organise a uniform try on day – date TBA Uniform must not be altered in any way- No uniform No participating

  6. Age Groups This year the groupings for the ages will depend upon the school year of each participant for the year ending 31st December 2014. Age groups will be determined once registrations have been completed and we see how many from each year have registered. In most cases, participants will be competing with others in the same year as them at school. Some years may be combined depending on numbers. The minimum age for acceptance is 12 years of age as at 13 January 2015. The maximum age for acceptance is 16 years and 11 months as at 13 January 2015

  7. Billeting Billeting is what Carnival is all about – meeting new friends, getting to know them and literally “living” together for a week. - Whilst on carnival your child will be billeted with a Jewish family in Melbourne. In many cases it will be this families responsibility to get your child to the sports each day and the social functions at night and ensure your child is properly fed. Melbourne carnival management is responsible for organizing the billeting unless you have pre-arranged a billet with family or friends (you must notify us of this on your registration. The host family MUST also make the same notation when they register. You will be advised of your child’s billet only a few days before carnival. Should your child wish to stay with a friend or relative but have not organised it, this can be requested on the sign on form but unfortunately we can not guarantee it will be possible. NOTE: the policy for this Carnival is one child per house for billeting – even if you pre arrange it unless there are very special circumstances which the Victorian Organising Committee would look at on a one on one basis – this is not up to us in NSW. Billeting information continued more next page

  8. Billeting Billeting will be worked out on the following priority: - Shomer Shabbat - Glatt Kosher - Kosher - Allergies - Gender - Age Group -Sport Choices If you already know someone in Melbourne you want your child to stay with please include this on the registration form and ensure the family in Melbourne put your child’s name on their form – remember only 1 child to stay at any house in Melbourne.
