ALTON CASTLE RESIDENTIAL TRIP - YEAR 7
8th September 2008
Dear Parent/Guardian
RE: ALTON CASTE RESIDENTIAL TRIP YEAR 7
During the week beginning 24th November 2008, there will be two residential trips to the Diocesan Retreat Centre, Alton Castle, Staffordshire.
The aim of the centre is to nurture an increased awareness of God through a range of activities including art, music, drama and outdoor pursuits such as mountain biking, climbing and nature trekking. I am keen to take as many Year 7 pupils as possible as it is such a wonderful experience and an excellent opportunity for the year group to bond.
Trip 1 : 24th 26th November
Trip 2 : 26th 28th November
Each trip is open to 65 pupils and as far as possible the pupils will stay within their form groups. The experience is open to all members of the year, however, there are a limited number of places available and therefore, the trip is offered on a first come first served basis. The cost of the trip for the three days is £87. .
If you would like your child to participate in this residential trip please return the reply slip below together with £10 deposit by return. All cheques should be made payable to BGN School. Should you wish to pay by instalments, we will arrange this for you at a later date.
If you have any questions regarding the trip please do not hesitate to contact me or alternatively you can find out more information about the centre at www.altoncastle.co.uk.
Yours sincerely
Miss Tara Boyle
Head of Year 7
