Our Ref: CEH/DMB 17 September 2015 Dear Parent/Guardian Lord of the Flies Tuesday 26 January 2016 Your son/daughter is invited to take part in an exciting theatre trip on Tuesday 26 January to see the challenging novel, Lord of the Flies, transformed into a dynamic performance at G-live in Guildford. This experience will undoubtedly help them to revise their text and understand character and events from a fresh perspective. We do hope that as many students as possible will take this opportunity to engage with this text in an entertaining way. The coach will leave the school drive at 5.45pm, returning students at approximately 10.30pm. The cost of the trip is £19.00 which includes travel and tickets. As this trip is deemed to be an enhancement to the curriculum, the school normally is unable to offer financial assistance and therefore the full cost of the activity must be borne by yourselves. Payments and accompanying paperwork must be handed in on or before the deadline date outlined to avoid jeopardising your child’s place on the trip/activity. Should your child withdraw from the activity, please be aware if a deposit is required that this will be non-refundable and any further payments can only be refunded if the place can be filled by another student on a waiting list, or if the withdrawal is for an insurable reason. If there are significant changes to the cost of the trip, these may have to be passed on to the student. Be assured that we will try to keep such costs to a minimum. We would advise that students do not to take valuables out on school activities, however, should they be taken parents should ensure personal possessions are adequately insured. It is the parent’s/guardian’s responsibility to update the school should there be any changes to the medical information about their child. Please communicate these to Mrs Brettell, Business Support Manager. Please complete and return the consent form and monies (cheques made payable to Oaklands Catholic School) to the Finance Office by Friday 2 October 2015. Alternatively you can pay online.
