Have you thought about bringing your pupils in the autumn term?

During the autumn term,

  • it is a fantastic opportunity to build deeper relationships between pupils and help teachers and pupils get to know each other for the coming academic year
  • it is more affordable to help all children be involved in the residential, as September – October is mid-season and November-December is low-season
  • all the effort and time used to organise a residential isn’t just for a reward at the end of the year – the whole class benefits from it throughout the year.
