Arrangements are well underway for Rome Pilgrimage 2019 which will include our current Fifth Years. The dates have been confirmed as Monday 16 September to Monday 23 September 2019. We are flying from Glasgow International to Rome Fiumicino with Jet2 and staying in the Hotel Dei Mille in the Centre of Rome.
We have managed to arrange for a visit to the Scavi deep underneath St Peter’s Basilica to St Peter’s Tomb. The pupils will have the privilege of looking to the Tomb of Peter from just a few feet away and being able to pray at his tomb.
The remaining amount to be a paid is £725.00 which can be paid in instalments as suggested :
Friday 22 February 2019 £125.00
Friday 29 March 2019 £200.00
Friday 26 April 2019 £200.00
Friday 24 May 2019 £200.00
For the visit each pupils requires an individual passport and we understand that a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) will still be important. In June 2019 pupils will be asked to provide details from passports to allow us to complete the Flight List. Please ensure that your child’s passport is current at this time and will remain current for September 2019.
Pupils should collect a letter from Mr Bradshaw and a Consent Form which will allow us to plan for any particular medical issues. The Consent Form should be completed and returned no later than Friday 23 November 2018. A further Consent Form will be issued nearer the time of the visit.
