Year 7 Hercules Theatre trip
2026
2026
At Warden Park Academy, we believe that all students in Year 7 should have the opportunity to see a West End show. This year, we have arranged for our students to see 'Hercules the Musical’ . This trip is not part of Character Enrichment Week. This trip will take place during school hours and thus an expression of interest is not required as it is expected that all students will attend. We will work with parents, students and the SEND department to ensure that all students are supported to attend and to enjoy their visit to the theatre.
Dates:
Thursday 18th June for Tutor groups : 7AF1, 7AM1, 7AS1, 7EU1, 7OC1
Thursday 25th June for Tutor groups : 7AF2, 7AM2, 7AS2, 7EU2, 7OC2
Time of departure from school: 11.00am
Time of arrival back to school: 7.00pm
The total cost of this trip is:
Non Pupil Premium: £47
Pupil Premium funded ticket : £25
Deadline for payments: March 1st 2026.
Please pay via the Parent Portal (not Parent Pay). If you have any difficulties accessing the portal please contact op@sussexlearningtrust.co.uk.
There is no sign up sheet for this trip as it is assumed that all students will attend (unlike with trips advertised during Character Enrichment Week or during half term for example which are 'opt in'). If you do not wish for you child to attend, please let Ms Shephard know via email at: sshephard@wardenpark.co.uk by 1st March.
This includes the show ticket, coach travel and all appropriate insurances. This is a voluntary contribution. However, as the academy could not bear any cost of the visit, it will not take place unless all parents who are able are willing to contribute.
We would love for all students to attend this trip so if you are unable to make a contribution or you are able only to make a partial contribution please contact Ms Shephard. If you do not wish for your child to attend, they will be in school for their allocated trip day and will follow the timetable of the other tutor groups in school that day. Please let Ms Shephard know via email that you wish to withdraw them from this trip.
What to bring:
Students will need to bring a packed lunch. If your child receives free school meals, one will be provided for them. Please ensure that they have enough water to last them the entire day. There will not be places for students to refill water containers and thus they must have enough water for the whole day.
What to wear:
Full school uniform. The uniform should be worn exactly as if you would if you were in school.
Please note that if students are to go on a school trip they must be presenting the best of our values consistently. If a student has a Character for Learning score of above 2.7 at the time of the trip, they may not be able to attend the trip. Parents/carers will not be eligible for a refund as final balances will have been paid to the providers. Please be assured that as a school we always balance the need for consistent implementation of our CFL grade, with the need to make reasonable adjustments to meet the individual needs and circumstances of our students.
