• Y5 - Manor Adventure Trip - Cancelled

  Tue 09 Jun 2020

  For Year 5 Parents.

  We can confirm that after initially re-arranging Manor Adventure to March 2021, we have cancelled the trip.

  We have considered pupil and staff safety and the uncertainty of a second wave of Covid19. We were also unable to secure an agreement that refunds would be received later in the year should we wish to wait and see the developments over the coming months.

  We hope you respect this decision and you will receive full refunds!

  We will keep you up to date in regards to refunding you ASAP.

   

  Thank you!
