Year 6 Trip To Oakham Castle & Rutland Museum.

We have an exciting opportunity to enrich our history unit with a trip Oakham Castle & Rutland Museum on Thursday 20th Nov 2025 from 9:00-14:45.   

  

This full day workshop takes place across the two historic sites. The session uses the collections of Rutland County Museum (including the only surviving New Drop Gallows in the United Kingdom!) to examine historical punishments and how the penal system has changed.  At Oakham Castle, children will discover what a courtroom is, how it is used and take part in a mini mock trial  

  

ALL children will need a packed lunch and a drink. If your child receives Free School Meals and you would like the school to provide a basic packed-lunch please speak to the school office by Thursday 13th November 2025.   

  

This trip will cost £15.50 which is available to pay in the trips section of your Arbor app by Monday 17th November 2025.   

  •  Oakham Castle & Rutland Museum activity - £160.00  
  • Coach Hire - £320.00  
  • Insurance, payments & other charges - £25.00  

  In agreement with the governing board, we have made the decision to run trips in a different way this school year. We will still be offering the same trips but will not be advertising our day trips to the children and instead will send letters directly to parents via Arbor. Trips will not be booked until all payments have been made and will not go ahead if all payments have not been received. Day trips will continue to be free for children on our Free School Meals register. 

 

Confirmation the trip will go ahead will be made on Tuesday 18th November 2025.  

 

Any questions please come and speak to me.  

  

Kind Regards,   

Ms Sheppard – Class Teacher
