Year 10 Camps

Year 10 Camps run from Monday 25 November - Friday 29 November 2019. A final reminder that some may still have a balance owing for camps. If this is you, or if you are unsure, please contact the office. Students will be issued with camp letters outlining full trip details and permission forms in the coming weeks. Please note, camps are a privilege, not a right, and that the school reserves the right to remove a student from their selected camp. If your child is not attending camp, they will be expected to attend school at the normal time and participate in the non-campers programme.
