Trips, visits and residentials
A wide range of visits and workshops are available to pupils in all year groups. These are an important component of the curriculum and associated work will form part of the programme of study in a specific subject. Whenever off-site activities are planned (day or residential), specific parental permission is required. Pupils in Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 have the opportunity to go away on residential visits – Year 3 for one night only, Year 4 for two nights and Years 5 and 6 for three or four nights.
