Following our students’ highly successful visit to Barcelona in May last year, we are delighted to confirm our intention to run a joint X24/E24 (year 9) optional fieldwork visit to Madrid from Friday 26th June 2020 – Monday 29th June 2020. Staying ensuite, on a half board basis in a hotel in Spain’s vibrant capital city, our students’ itinerary will include:
- coach transfers with return air travel to Madrid Barajas Airport
- group seating allocation on board the aircraft
- tour of Bernabeu Stadium
- visits to Reina Sofia, Thyssen Museum and the Puerta del Sol
- Palacio Real
- Evening meal in Hard Rock cafe
- Our tour will be accompanied throughout by a representative from our travel company
- Travel insurance endorsed by the DfE
This optional fieldwork visit is open to all X24 and E24 students in our current year 9, both the GCSE Spanish groups and the Spanish+ groups, and as the final price is dependent upon the number of participants we have quoted £620.00 based on 30 students taking part. However, this price could increase or decrease depending upon final numbers.
As well as providing an excellent opportunity for our students to practise their Spanish speaking skills, it will also incorporate study of Spain’s artistic heritage, and this will form the basis of a subsequent Presentation of Learning.
An initial non-refundable deposit of £100.00 required by 29th November 2019 may be paid via the Parentpay portal, and letters confirming the details may be obtained from Mr Pearson, Mrs Sprakes or X24/E24 Crew Leaders.
