At St Francis, we recognise the benefit of curriculum and extra-curricular trips and events in providing outstanding opportunities for our children.
We also understand that these can prove costly to parents/carers and can be a cause of worry. Like most schools, we are not able to run most trips/events without asking for parental donations to help cover the cost. To help parents/carers plan for the year ahead we have put together the trip overview below. This shows tentative information on the kinds of trips/events your child might take part in and the approximate parental contribution.
Please bear in mind that this information is subject to change and that costs can increase considerably based on factors beyond our control, for example transport costs. The plan will be reviewed and updated annually. Any major changes will be updated during the year.
We want our trips/events programme to be accessible to all. Families in receipt of free school meals or pupil premium are often eligible for financial support towards the cost of such activities. Please contact Ms Edwards, Business Manager, or Miss Morgan, Deputy Headteacher, in confidence to discuss.
