This programme is jointly supported by Inverness Community Education Inverness New Community School and mp33

Welcome to our new 2002 Summer Activity page. Here you will find information on all of the activities on offer and links to as many of the activity sites as possible.

If you are in S1 to S4 at Inverness High School then you are able to apply to take part in any or all of the exciting days out that are planned.

We plan to have weekly updates of the activities and pictures of the participants on each day - so check back often and see if your picture has been posted.

We will be fishing the bait loch so there will be wriggly things about!

What does all this fun and excitement cost?

Each activity is priced at a reasonable cost - see programme handout for details. The price includes transport to all the activities, all instruction and special equipment, where applicable. It also includes your lunch when the activity lasts all day!

You can get request forms from mp33 and Inverness High School New Community School Base. Fill them in and return them to mp33 or the School Base - but be quick - as places will be limited.

The lucky applicants will be notified and you can then pay for your trips.

In order to be fair to all pupils in S1 to S4 we will not be operating on a first come first served basis. Instead we will accept all requests and where necessary allocate places to ensure that as many different pupils as possible get a chance to attend the activities.

Permission must be granted from your parent or guardian and one permission form will cover all the activities on offer.

No pupil will be allowed to attend unless a permission form is returned. !!Absolutely no exception will be made!! - So make sure you return the permission form with your booking form and fee.
