School Trips and Residentials

We believe that offering residential school trips is important for personal development. We are excited to offer a range of residential trips to our pupils in KS2 (Year 3-6).

Please see below the residential trips being offered in 22-23 and 23-24. Information about these visits is sent out well in advance. Class teachers organise information evenings for residential trips which families are encouraged to attend.
