Dear Parent/Carer
Geography Field Trip – Cambridge
The Geography department have organised a field trip to Cambridge on 27th September 2024. This trip is a fantastic opportunity to bring learning alive and hopefully improve your child’s chances of gaining their predicted grade. This is the first experience of fieldwork for students and will help with the third component of Geography. This trip is compulsory and fundamental to your child’s education.
We will be travelling to Cambridge by coach. Below is an itinerary for the day:
08.00 – Meet in the quad for prompt departure
09.15 – Arrive in Cambridge
09.30 – Urban Fieldwork
12.00 – Lunch
13.00 – Punting along the River Cam
14.30 – Depart Cambridge
16.00 – Arrive back at Biddenham (traffic permitting)
Students are required to bring a packed lunch, water and snacks for the day or money to purchase. Any student in receipt of free school meals will be able to collect a packed lunch from the canteen prior to departure. Students will need to wear comfortable and practical footwear and will be required to bring a pencil case, notepad and a small rucksack.
The cost of this trip is £30.00. This includes travel and the punting activity. To confirm your child’s place, please provide payment and parental consent via your ParentPay account.
If you have any questions regarding this trip, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Yours sincerely
