Dear Parent/Carer,

RE: Nethercott Farm School Journey Monday 9^th February – Friday 13^th February 2026

Your child has secured a place on the school residential trip to Nethercott Farm in February.

A Nethercott information pack is included. The medical and declaration form must be completed online by Friday 28^th November 2025, as this needs to be sent to Nethercott Farm in advance of our arrival.

Payments should be made via SCOPAY. Text reminders will be sent to everyone one week before each instalment is due. Any overdue balances will be notified by email via SCOPAY. If you are unable to log into your SCOPAY account, or are having any issues with SCOPAY, please contact the School Office.

Payment	Due Date	Full Rate	FSM Discounted Rate
Deposit	PAID	£50	£50
1^st Payment	31/10/2025	£80	£35
2^nd Payment	30/11/2025	£80	£35
3^rd Payment	31/12/2025	£80	£35
4^th Payment	31/01/2026	£80	£35
Total		£370	£190

Please note that all initial £50 deposits are non-refundable.
Cancellations made by the end of November will be eligible for a 50% refund (excluding the deposit).
In the event that a child is unable to attend due to illness, a refund may be arranged upon receipt of a doctor’s certificate, although the initial deposit will still remain non-refundable.
As charges are made to the school by Nethercott Farm once deposits are paid, the school is required to cover the full cost of all places reserved. However, if a cancelled place can be filled, the school will be able to provide a full refund.

If you have any further questions regarding Nethercott, please do not hesitate to contact the School Office or speak with Mrs Heron-Njie.

Mrs Heron-Njie will hold another meeting for parents on Tuesday 2^nd December at 5:00pm.

Below this letter you will find information shared at the previous meeting with parents and a clothing list.

Thank you for your support,

The Nethercott Team

NETHERCOTT FARM TRIP – CLOTHING LIST

Clothing List Nethercott 26 Download

We would like to remind parents Nethercott Farm will provide the overalls only for the children.

Wellington boots* – please make sure they are at least one size bigger than their original shoe size. These need to come into school the week before the visit at the latest. They have to be named on the inside of each boot.
A warm coat – warm enough for outdoor play and large enough for jumpers/ sweatshirts to be worn underneath
Old trainers for OUTDOOR wear
Slippers/crocs with proper soles for INDOOR wear
Five pairs of trousers/jeans/tracksuit bottoms/leggings
T- Shirts, vest, thermals, jumpers, sweatshirts
Underwear enough for a week (plus a few extra)
Socks enough for a week (plus a few pairs of extras)
Nightwear (and a dressing gown, if possible)
Wash bag – soap/shower gel, shampoo, flannel, toothbrush, toothpaste, brush/comb, etc
A bath towel
Re-fillable and named water bottle
Hair bands for long hair
Tissues
A scarf, gloves and a hat (2 hats if you plan on wearing one on the farm). No gloves are allowed to be worn on the farm – so one pair is sufficient.

It is very important that children bring sensible, adequate clothing – plenty of normal old clothes as the children will get dirty!

All clothing should be packed in ONE case or bag AND please send your child with at least ONE large labelled BIN LINER for dirty clothes.

Please name your child’s suitcase on the outside.

PLEASE ENSURE ALL CLOTHING IS LABELLED (initials will do)
