Make sure your student in PE classes has good court shoes, and appropriate PE clothing. A CIPLC PE uniform (T-Shirt with CIPLC emblem) is required for PE. The clothing can be purchased at school.

Footwear at CIPLC in general:
Since the kids are on the court most of the time- PE, recess, practice, etc.... Footwear is an extremely important topic. At CIPLC both courts are cement so there is no "give" in them. This means purchasing properly fitting shoes for a hard court and keeping them in good condition is very important. Having good shoes in good condition will help your child avoid injury and improve their athletic potential.

Items recommended are:

-1 pair high tops or equivalent BB/Volleyball shoes reserved for only for after school court sports (good quality)
-1 pair of indoor soccer/Volleyball shoes for only for after-school soccer (good quality)
Note: Either Indoor soccer shoes or BB shoes will be adequate for Volleyball; However BB shoes for soccer or soccer shoes for BB are not adequate support.
-1 pair of cross trainers/court shoes for only for PE (good quality) -1 pair of cross trainers, or casual shoes or  just for wearing around (cheap)

Sports/Athletics
If a student is going to be participating in any of the following sports, they should have:

Roller Hockey (very popular) - Rollerblades, pads for your knees, elbows, gloves, your own stick or durable blade insert, and a helmet that covers the back of your head (skating helmet is OK).

Basketball - High top basketball shoes, appropriate basketball practice gear

Volleyball - High top basketball shoes (or court shoes, but no running shoes as ankles can be sprained very easily), knee pads, appropriate practice clothing

Soccer & Indoor Soccer - Court shoes (basketball OK, but not great), indoor soccer shoes can be purchased in the states for $ 25 or here for $ 40, shin guards, soccer socks, appropriate practice clothing. Also for soccer on the fields cleats will be required.

Softball - Softball/baseball glove, soccer cleats

Golf - Set of clubs, glove, hat, golf balls, and golf tees

Bubble Makers/Diving - If your student is going to participate in the Bubble Makers (snorkeling and diving), a mask, fins and snorkel will be needed.

Tennis is a sport you can play in the area, but the school doesn't offer it. So you may just want a racquet for fun!

Contact Coach Irvin, Athletics and Activities Director at: cirvin@ciplc.net for more information about what to bring.

If a student is interested in taking middle or high school band, they might need to provide their own instrument (stringed, wind, brass, etc.) since the school has limited equipment to rent. Purchase of the equipment prior to arrival is highly recommended since the cost of buying instruments in Venezuela is very high, and even finding a particular instrument can be difficult.

Grades 3, 4, and 5 and possibly 2nd grade at the end of the year would be introduced or continue soprano recorder. Even though the school provides recorders on a loan basis, we encourage any students who are interested to purchase their own soprano recorder. This makes it more personal and hygienic.

For more information about what the school has to rent or if you need to purchase an instrument, please contact Mr. Jay Londgren, CIPLC Music Teacher..
