Holiday outings
I’ve worked out the lists for the Newcastle and New London day trips: you should receive confirmation at lunch today one way or the other. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we coordinate staffing and other details.
We still have a few remaining spaces for CCF students for the Yorkshire Dales trip (8th April), and for both CCF and YPL students for the Cambridge visit (11th April). Please see me today if you are still interested. Confirmation notes about those trips will be out tomorrow.
You are reminded that your parents are responsible for getting you to the central meeting point in New London each day: specifics will be sent to them later this week, or they may confirm with Felix Green in the WEA office if they have other logistics questions. Basic expenses (including meals and any admission fees) will be covered by the programme, but you may wish to bring pocket money for extras. Promptness and exemplary behaviour are both expected and required.
I’m glad to take questions here. Otherwise, I’ll be in my office during my usual Monday hours after supper.

Private message to Professor Sinistra
I was wondering, might I be allowed to meet up with some friends the date of the second New London trip?
Re: Private message to Professor Sinistra
As to your other question - formally, we can't add third years to the party. That said, I know you often don't get a chance to get out on your own during holidays, and I don't think there would be a problem this time.
You'd have to arrange permission with the Browns, and get yourself to the meeting point and home, but as we'll be meeting in Diagon Alley, that shouldn't be too difficult.
You'd also need to check in with one of the chaperones. There will be two, but I'll add you to the list for Mr Felix Green (a clerk in the WEA office who helps me with YPL business). He's not that long out of school himself, and very easygoing - as long as you check in with him and let him know by journal if you get separated from your friends, you should be just fine.
If Mrs Brown has any questions, please let her know she's welcome to ask - I'll be here till Saturday, then in New London myself if she prefers owl to journal.
