Medical matters:
In order to minimise problems, it is important that students let staff know
immediately if they feel ill.
All medication should be handed to Mr Falconer upon arrival at the airport
express. It should be clearly labelled with name and instructions.
Insurance:
The school holds a comprehensive travel insurance policy to cover all overseas
school visits. The policy will cover normal benefits associated with travel insurance
including medical, hospital and repatriation expenses where necessary. If it was
necessary to cancel a visit due to circumstances not covered by the travel insurance
policy, then costs may not be recoverable.
BEHAVIOUR
Students will be a member of a group in a foreign country. To be sure of having an
enjoyable time, they must be prepared to make an effort to get on with the other
students and staff who they will be living with at the centre. Sensible behaviour and
consideration is essential especially with centre staff.
As you are aware, you are representing Kellett, and at all times we expect the very
highest standards. With this in mind, I’d like to take the opportunity to remind you
that…

We expect you to be polite and courteous at all times.
Students are always to be punctual when arrangements have been made to
meet at a certain time and place.
Students are not to dash around the centre. Be considerate.
Students are not to go out alone. Students must be accompanied by at least
one other from our party.
No alcoholic drinks or smoking are allowed for the entire trip.
Any damage will be charged to parents/guardians.
If any pupil is uncooperative with staff they may be asked to leave the visit. This
will be at parents’ expense.
English is spoken / understood by most people in France. They will understand
if students are being rude as well as when they are being polite.
