Sign Up Procedure & Payment
Before you make your selection, you MUST have had a discussion with your parents about your trip preference. Your parents must approve of your choice. We appreciate that you may want to join your friends on a trip, so we would also encourage you to speak to them before you confirm.
Students currently in Years 9–12 will be asked to select two activities in order of preference. We will make every effort to accommodate their first choice; however, it may be the case that some activities are oversubscribed or that others may not be able to run if too few students sign up.
Should a trip be oversubscribed, students will be placed to ensure groups are well balanced in regard to year groups. The final decision on groups will rest with the Head of Secondary. Please note that the costs indicated are provisional and may change due to factors such as fuel surcharges and currency fluctuations.
Parents are responsible for arranging VISAs, if required.
Passports need to be valid for a minimum period of 6 months from the date of arrival at the destination.
Most overseas trips will utilise the weekends either side of the week of 11th –15th November for travel to optimise the length of the trip.
Students and families will be contacted via email with the designated trip by 17th April.
We would like to stress that withdrawal from your option, once deposits have been paid, WILL result in the loss of your deposit.
