Trips update 2013-14

So the following trips are DEFINITELY available for next academic year:

1. 5th and 6th December 2013
   Christmas Markets and DisneyLand Resort Paris - overnight trip - leaving at about 11.30pm on Wednesday 4th December; getting the Eurostar at about 7.20am on Thursday 5th December; driving down to the markets in Arras and then Amiens, before heading to our hotel - Comfort Inn, Lagny-sur-Marne..  On Friday 6th December, we will get up early and head to DisneyLand before coming home on the 8pm train and heading back to school in the very early hours.  All for £132.
2. 25th-29th June 2014
   A 5 day, 4 night trip to Normandy.  Visits to include: Pointe du Hoc, Mont St Michel, the city of Rouen, the city of Caen, guided tour around Juno Beach, Arromanches 360 cinema (where the film reel of the D-Day landing happens literally around you, hence the 360!), a bakery, a goats cheese farm (where YOU will make cheese), probably a cider and apply juice farm, a visit to the city of Bayeux.  If you came to Normandy in 2011, then you will see that there are only 2 things that are the same (we have got to go to a couple of places again, but otherwise, you'll visit loads of new places - it'll be great).  Exact cost depends on final numbers, but we are looking at between 380 and 410 for the trip - the more students travel, the more reduction there will be to the cost.

Letters should have been given out already, but in case they haven't been, then come and get one from me!

Trips 2013-2014

A quick update on the planning for next academic year. We are planning on running 3 trips next year. 1 is already well on the way to being sorted, the other two are very much in the early stages of planning. We have asked for quotes for a Christmas Markets visit again - I have asked for quotes for both a one day trip (like we did last year), and an overnight one as well - if I can get the overnight version under £100, then I will promote that very soon! The summer trip will be to France, to Normandy and will bring all the sights for D-Day into the fold - this year marks the 75th Anniversary of D-Day, but also the centenary of the start of World War 1 - so there will be some WW1 stop offs as well. Of course, the February/March trip to Berlin is well underway - 22 students are already signed up to come along. We're so excited!!!!
