Y6 Only – Newby Wiske Hall Residential Important

As you are aware, at the end of last year we booked our Year 6 residential for July 2024 when your children are nearing the end of their time at Cookridge Primary. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances at the end of last year, we had to cancel our meeting in regards to the residential but it is fantastic to see that a large amount of you have already paid the deposit.

As mentioned last year, we have decided to try a new location – Newby Wiske Hall – which is a PGL residential centre. PGL own multiple residential centres across the UK and France and provide fantastic experiences for children of all ages. Newby Wiske Hall is one of their newest centres and is located in North Yorkshire. 

In July last year we sent out some information in regards to the deposit and payment including key dates. We must inform PGL of our final numbers in September so we asked that you paid a deposit of £50 by Thursday 21st September 2023. If you have not yet paid a deposit, we will accept a £25 deposit between now and the deadline. If a deposit is not made by this date, we will presume you do not want a place for your child on the trip. As the centre has multiple schools on site, they cannot guarantee that we will be able to add extra spaces after this deadline. We would love as many children as possible to come, so please discuss with us if you have any questions regarding the deposit and payment.

I have also scheduled a Zoom meeting to take place online on Wednesday 13th September @ 5pm which will give you a chance to ask further questions and will also give us the chance to show you the centre in more detail.

The link for the Zoom meeting will be sent out on the day of meeting.
