TEAM Week for Year 9 - Letter to Parents/Carers of students that have not booked Manor House of Sennen Cove Camping
Dear Parent/Carer
TEAM Week for Year 9, Monday 17th Friday 21st July 2023
for the students that have NOT booked Manor House or Sennen Cove Camping
I am writing to provide you with more information about TEAM week 2023 for the students that are not attending a residential during this week, which we are excited to be able to offer. Year 9 students will follow the same programme giving them the opportunity to learn outside of the classroom and to further develop our school TEAM values.
Students in Year 9 will need to line up as normal, Year 9 will be on a different activity each day with 4 out of the 5 days being daytrips, with all students that are not taking part in residentials taking part in the programme. Students will need to bring a packed lunch each day, packed lunches will be provided for FSM students. Students will need to ensure they are prepared for all eventualities, they need to wear suitable own clothes and will not be expected to wear uniform, bringing a waterproof jacket and suntan lotion as well as plenty to drink. They should not bring valuables as school cannot be responsible for these. I have included the outline for the week below.

We will write to you nearer the time with more specific details and arrangements, in the meantime should you have any further questions please email your son/daughter’s form tutor, myself at egue@saltashcloud.net or emetters@saltashcloud.net (Head of Year), who will be leading on these activities. We have tried to keep the costs of activities and trips to a minimum and have subsidised these, however we are requesting a £40 voluntary contribution, the deadline for this payment will be the 5th July 2023, this will be on ParentPay. If we do not receive enough contributions then the external trips might have to be altered to include more in school options, we really hope that this will not be the case. We will require whole school consent for the school trips should you not have yet completed this, we will be in touch.
Thank you as always for your ongoing support.
Yours faithfully
Mrs E Gue
