Note that a valid passport will be required for your child. Please check that your child’s passport is:

  • issued less than 10 years before the date you enter the country (check the ‘date of issue’)
  • valid for at least 3 months after the day you plan to leave (check the ‘expiry date’)

You must check your child’s passport meets these requirements before they travel. 

Visas

If your child does not have a UK passport you will need to apply for a visa now. As visa requirements vary, I would strongly advise you to contact the embassy directly to obtain the correct information and procedure. Please note it is the parent’s responsibility to apply for a visa should it be required.  If you are applying for a visa please let me know.

We will also need an GHIC card for each participant to ensure health services if required. These can be applied for online  https://overseas-healthcare.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/get-healthcare-cover-travelling-abroad/start

I also would like to take this opportunity to invite you to an information meeting about this trip that will take place on Thursday 28th November at 19:00 in the dining hall.  It is important that your son/daughter attends with you.  The detailed itinerary will be explained and there will be a chance to ask questions and could you also bring your child’s GHIC and passport to the meeting.

Could you please also read through the behavior policy code with your child and completing the below by Thursday 28th November.
