Frequently Asked Questions
What time do we leave/arrive?
Children need to arrive in school at the normal time on Monday. Children will go straight to the hall, instead of the classroom to drop off their luggage. We will be doing team-building activities in the morning before we head off. The coach will be leaving around 12:30 to arrive at the centre for the afternoon. Parents are very welcome to come and wave us off!
On Friday, children will leave the centre after lunch and will arrive back at school at approximately 3:30pm. We will send a text once they are on the way to inform parents of traffic conditions.
Do we need a packed lunch?
Children need to bring a packed lunch for the first day. All other meals during the visit are provided by Manor Adventure. We recommend an extra snack and drink for the first day to help stay energised for the journey. All children must bring a labelled water bottle which can be re-filled.
Can we wear jewellery?
Children can only wear a single pair of stud earrings. These should be able to be removed or covered for some activities. Long hair will also need to be tied up. Some children may like to wear a watch, but they may be asked to remove it for some activities.
Can we bring deodorant?
No spray deodorants are permitted in Manor Adventure centres. Roll-on types are absolutely fine.
Can we bring sweets/money/phones/electrical items?
No. Sweets, drinks (other than water) and other food items are not permitted in children's rooms. Children do not need any money and must not bring electrical items. We do recommend a small teddy and books, travel games or similar for free periods.
What if my child has medical needs?
Please complete and return the Medical Information Form to the school so that we are aware of any additional needs. Any medicines that need to be administered must be handed to the teachers in the morning before leaving. Children with asthma will need to carry an inhaler at all times and will not be permitted to take part in any activities without it.
