October Half Term Camp (Year 10-13)

All cadets in year 10-13 (from September 2023) are invited to attend our October Half term camp. Please note this is taking place at the end of half term in November.

The camp is a largely field based trip, and will include an overnight 36 hour exercise where cadets will camp outside. Cadets must be physically fit and well to attend. They must also have passed their weapon handling test in the 6 months prior to the camp. Cadets will not be able to attend if they have not passed their weapon handling test. We will run weapon handling tests after parade in the weeks leading up to camp to ensure all attendees have a current pass. 

The camp tends to be oversubscribed each year so please book as early as possible if you intend to come. The deadline for applications is the end of August.\

Those who qualify for pupil premium are able to book using the coupon code previously issued. If you have misplaced that, please contact us directly. 

Terms of Booking

We regard payment of the camp fee as a firm commitment to attend camp and will not routinely offer refunds, except in cases of obvious emergency, such as illness.  We have many cadets applying for a limited number of places, and in the past have had withdrawals because cadets and/or parents have changed their minds, have subsequently booked other engagements, or decided that exam revision has become too urgent.  None of these reasons merit refunds.  We would urge parents and cadets to think carefully before applying for   a place on camp

Cadets and parents are also acknowledging by applying that they are physically fit to undertake the full demands of camp and that they will inform us if there are health issues which arise subsequent to an application.  Failure to do this may result in future camp applications being rejected, as we have to be able to run camps on the basis of full information about cadets' health being provided.
