This letter is advance warning of the Higher / Intermediate Geography residential excursion to the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales which leaves the school on Tuesday, 18 th September and arrives back in the afternoon of Thursday , 20th . (Tuesday is a holiday for pupils.)
We will visit the Yorkshire Dales , famous for its limestone scenery and The Lake District with its Glaciated scenery , allowing us to study a large section of the Lithosphere and Rural Land Resources sections of the course. Although not compulsory , it is a very useful and enjoyable part of the course.
We will take a minibus down to Ingleton , where we visit the White Scar Caves
The school is able to pay for the minibus but most of the cost of the trip will be paid for by pupils . The cost will be £ 70 each , which includes 2 evening meals, 2 breakfasts , 2 packed lunches , 2 evenings in the Youth Hostel , diesel costs and entrance to the caves.
Should you wish your son / daughter to take part in this, please pay the initial £30 , non returnable deposit, in the second week of the new term. The final payment will need to be paid by the 14th of September. Unfortunately we will not be able to refund full payments if your child withdraws from the trip after this date. However, if there is anybody who would like their son or daughter to attend but is unable to pay the full amount by then, please do not hesitate to phone me.
Final details and consent forms will be issued nearer the date of departure.
Yours Faithfully ,
Blea Tarn in the Lake District
White Scar Caves in The Yorkshire Dales
Limestone Pavement , The Yorkshire Dales
