London Year 6 Hemlington Hall Academy London Trip June 2025

Please complete by Thursday 17th October 2024

Dear families,

I have been very busy behind the scene trying to bring down costs for our London trip. I have 27 children interested in going. Costs were working out at nearly £500 for our 3-day residential and we have made the decision that this is not value for money. I have tried various other options but I cannot get the costs lower.

Some of our Trust schools do the London trip a little different. They take the train – Middlesbrough to London! The use The Tube and have the same amazing trip that we have.

So this is what we are going to do! The trip will most likely be in the third week of June 2025.

The itinerary would include such experiences as:

(These are not confirmed but just to give you an indication)

London Show –

The London Eye

Houses of Parliament

The Science Museum

National History Museum

Walk around London

River Cruise

Although I have not got final costs, I am estimating that this could cost around £300 . I will try to source funding to support with these costs and we can organise our own fundraising within the school to support with costs. Both Mrs Edmenson and I will be going along with a full compliment of staff in line with the ratios needed for adult:pupil within our Risk assessments for such a residential.

This trip will be amazing. London is still calling! With the change of transport, please can I ask again that you sign up and give me your interest based on the above proposed residential for your child.

From this interest, I will get booking and get deposits in (£20 due the 31st Oct) to secure your child’s place.

Please submit your interest by Thursday 17th October.

Mrs Knox
