We are adding to this calendar all of the time! Dates also go on our school calendar that you can find here.
This calendar is to give parents/carers an idea of what your student may be offered as they go through their High School journey. Not all trips will be offered every year, and the costings given are very much approximates and subject to change. However we feel that this is a helpful guide to perhaps help parents plan for the future.
You can see details about previous trips in our News section here.
You see our fabulous range of clubs here.
