Year 7 Boulogne, French Trip 2027
Off Site Activity: Friday 11 June 2027
Dear Parents and Carers,
We are hoping to take a party of current Year 7 students to:
Venue: Boulogne, France
Date: Friday 11 June 2027
Learning Outcomes: To gain insight to French culture and use the language in a
natural environment.
The trip is open to 100 students together with 10 members of staff. The group leader for the activity is Miss McCormick.
Dress: Casual – within the regulations of the school’s nonuniform
policy
Transport: 2 x Coaches by ferry Dover-Calais
Time & place of Departure: 03:50 from school
Anticipated Return: 23:00 at school
Cost: £100.00
Provisional itinerary: Visit the historic area of Old Boulogne, visit a snail farm, visit a French hypermarket.
Additional details/requirements: Due to the length of this trip, students will need to bring
sufficient drinks and snacks. A cooked meal should be available on the ferries there and
back and this is included in the ticket price. We recommend that students bring
approximately £30.00 changed into Euros to spend in Boulogne and at the hypermarket.
We recommend they also bring approximately £10.00 in sterling if they wish to buy anything from the shop on the ferry.
If you are interested in your child going on this trip, please complete the online reply slip by clicking on the link in the letter emailed and pay the £25.00 deposit on Scopay by Friday 6 November 2026.
The final balance of £75.00 can be paid by the following instalments:
£25.00 due Friday 5 February 2027
£25.00 due Friday 5 March 2027
£25.00 due Friday 16 April 2027
Once you have made any payments, they become non-refundable, unless we can find a
replacement.
Unfortunately, numbers are limited, so if the trip is oversubscribed a ballot will take
place shortly after 6 November. Unsuccessful students will be put on a waiting list to
take the place of anyone who drops out.
