French Cultural Visit 23rd-28th June 2014

Dear Parents/Carers

I am writing to let you know about the arrangements for the forthcoming French Cultural Visit to Brittany. I would like to invite you to a parents’ meeting at Langtree on Thursday 15th May at 7pm. This will be an opportunity for you to find out more about the visit and ask any questions you may have. I would appreciate it if you could contact me via e-mail to confirm if you will be able to attend this meeting.

Medical Forms by Friday 2nd May 2014

Please complete a medical form for your child. This is attached to this letter. It is important that we get accurate information about any illnesses, dietary requirements or medical conditions. I would very much appreciate prompt return of the medical form as we need to collate all the information, complete risk assessment and contact the Auberge with dietary requirements. The parents’ meeting will be a chance to discuss any concerns you may have regarding your child’s medical or dietary requirements.

Passports and EHIC by Friday 16th May 2014

I am also asking for all passports and EHIC cards to be handed into the red box in a clearly marked envelope by Friday 16th May. Please ensure your child’s passport and EHIC cards are valid. EHIC cards can be applied for on-line at this address and should be done so immediately to ensure you have a card in time for the visit: They are completely free although other unofficial websites may charge you if you apply through them.
