As part of the Trust's residential offer, we manage and administer, on behalf of our schools, an annual summer residential to St. Omer on the Opal Coast in France, attended by our Year 5 & 6 pupils. 

The children stay at the beautiful Chateau d'Ebblingham, just 45 minutes from the Channel ports, surrounding by 4 hectares of lush green countryside.  The Chateau is a dedicated NST Travel Group centre, specifically renovated to provide a high standard of accommodation with four separate buildings each designed to accommodate pupil and teachers.

The children are immersed in enriching French cultural adventures for the pupils where they will be able to practice their French in an authentic environment!

The children will explore St.Omer, the cathedral, the local markets and shops, as well as enjoying a programme of activities at the Chateau in the evening, including:-
Outdoor activities during the summer months

Talent shows, Games shows, Quizzes and Disco's

Team challenges and Initiative exercises
