P6/7 School Trip

28 September 2018

SCHOOL TRIP 2019

This year our combined P6 and P7 trip will visit the English Midlands from Monday 13th – Thursday 16th May.

The proposed itinerary for 2019 was attached to the letter for your information and is very similar to the 2017 trip which proved to be a very popular, stimulating and rewarding trip for the children who participated.

The cost per pupil will be £460.00 approximately although this may be subject to variation dependent on the number of children who want to go. 

To allow us to gauge the feasibility of the proposed trip please complete the reply slip and return to school with a deposit of £100.00 by Friday 12th October. Should the trip be deemed viable (based on the number of replies) your deposit will be passed to our tour company. We have been informed that the deposits are not refundable as they will be used immediately to book and pay for airline seats. Flight times will be confirmed at a later date.

Should the trip go ahead a weekly payment scheme will come into operation to allow the balance to be paid at your convenience.

Please contact Mr Millar should you wish to discuss any aspect of the 2019 trip.
