FAQ
Will we have contact from the school to let us know how the children are getting on in the trip?
Yes of course. There will be daily updates from the school in regard to how the trip is going and photos will be uploaded. The school will let you know their form of communication closer to the time of the trip.
Who do I talk to about the medical needs of my child on this trip?
For all medical requirements, please fill out the details in the form provided to you by the school. On receiving the form, the trip leader or medical representative from your local school will reach out to discuss this with you. We will ensure that your child’s medical needs are taken care of during the trip.
What is the adult to child ratio for this trip?
The adult to child ratio will be carefully maintained to ensure the safety and supervision of all children. We follow guidance from the DfE and aim to have a ratio of 1 adult to every 15 children, which allows for effective management and support throughout the trip.
My child has dietary needs, will it be catered for on the trip?
We understand that dietary needs vary from child to child, and we are committed to accommodating special dietary requirements during the trip. All food that is provided fits within the ethos boundaries of Avanti (vegetarian). As part of our planning process, we gather information about any dietary restrictions or allergies your child may have. Our team will work closely with the appropriate staff, such as chefs or food service providers, to ensure that suitable meals and snacks are available for your child throughout the trip. We take food safety seriously and strive to create an inclusive environment where everyone can enjoy their meals comfortably. Please make sure to provide us with detailed information about your child’s dietary needs during the registration process so we can ensure they have everything they need.
If my child is anxious or nervous, will they be looked after?
For all our trips, we’re here to support each unique child’s experience. Our staff are committed to providing the necessary support to help your child navigate through their anxieties. We actively promote emotional well-being and offer various strategies and resources to help children manage their emotions effectively. We offer choices for them to participate in their own way with the different activities and workshops we host. They are in safe hands and will be cared for with great attention.
