Buses arrive at Penllergaer services at 8.00pm and depart at 8.15pm on the evening of Thursday 2nd March.
Can parents/guardians please ensure that pupils are at the services for this time as we are on a very tight schedule to make our ferry crossing to Calais.
Upon boarding the coach, pupils will be expected to provide the coach leader with their passport. We, as a school, take the precaution of photocopying the passports prior to departure, just for added assurance, however, pupils will not be granted return to the UK on photocopied documents. They will have to produce their original passport. Passports are then kept under lock and key until we are required to produce them at border control points.
The weather forecast for the weekend is currently looking to be wet and cold. Could parents/guardians please take the time to ensure that children pack appropriately to match these conditions?
Another small reminder is for the use of mobile phones abroad. If you wish for your child to use their mobile phone abroad, can you please make sure that there is an appropriate travel package/bolt on added to their account to ensure no large bills upon return! We advise all pupils before the ferry crossing that if they are unsure to turn the ‘roaming’ feature off on their mobiles.
Updates will be posted from Disneyland via the school website/social media and we will keep you informed of any travel information on our return journey home and expected arrival times back at Penllergaer service station. In previous years we have normally returned home around the 6.00-7.00pm mark.
Any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact the school on (01792) 873461.
