SCHOOL TRIP: Seniors



SCHOOL TRIP: Seniors


Ah, Paris. The city of love. This weekend it will be host to Gooseberry's senior class as part of their school trip. The weather's a little rainy, but not cold. The clouds and afternoon drizzles add a bit to the ambience.

Students are given packets that contain their hotel room key, museum pass, allowance, a map of the city and its Floo network, the itinerary, and a basic list of rules. For the most part, it looks like they'll have a lot of freedom, so long as they don't break any rules. "We want you to explore the city as independent young adults," says Mr. Calderon-Boot. "We're trusting you, so don't let us down."

HOW THIS WORKS
  • The senior class is going to Paris, France! They'll be staying at the Hotel Les Theatres. Rooms can either have two twin beds, two queen sized beds, or one queen sized bed.

  • Staff presence: Mr. Calderon-Boot, Mr. Merrill, Ms. Lilywhite

  • Students will have to go through international magical customs, so they can't have any contraband in their bags, such as weapons or drugs. They will be travelling via the Floo network to the Parisian Magical Transportation & Travel Station, after which they'll be taken to their hotel.

  • For the two non-travel days, in the morning there will be a set school activity that's mandatory, and in the evenings students can do whatever they want to.
    • Friday: Palace of Versailles, the Catacombs. Students leave at 9:00 AM, and return to the hotel at 3:00 PM

    • Saturday: Eiffel Tower, The Louvre, Notre Dame. Students leave to see the city at 9:00 AM, and return to the hotel at 3:00 PM
  • Students are given an allowance of €40 (~$50) per day for food and leisure. They have student passes to get into museums, gardens, etc. with no charge, and the hotel has a free continental breakfast. Any room charges will come out of your character's allowance. They may spend their own personal money however they please.

  • The staff are aware that many of the seniors are of legal drinking age in France. They simply ask students not to overdo it, and to contact a staff member if they ever get stranded or drink too much. They won't get in trouble.

  • Curfew is 12:00 AM. Teachers will come through to make sure everyone is in their rooms. Reid Wainwright has a curfew of 10:00 PM as a consequence of skipping Cotillion.

  • ALTHOUGH THIS IS BEING POSTED ON 11/22, STUDENTS WILL NOT ACTUALLY BE LEAVING UNTIL THE MORNING OF 11/23!

Nia taps her fingers against her mouth, trying to think of how to approach her question. "If you were destined - tragically - for arranged marriage with a much older man, who on Gooseberry staff would you most hope it would be?"

"Ooooh." Addy has been practicing for this question her whole life. "Mr. Calderon-Boot. Totally. He's soooo chill, and he could show me off and embarrass his fancy family. We're perfect. I'd tooootally marry him if we had to."

"Mr. Chettri for me," Ursula chimes in, even though no one asked. Nope, she definitely doesn't have a type.

"I think I've seen him a total of like...twice." Addy sighs. "He's just a liiittle too shy."

"Two years of Divination and no sign of the Sight was completely worth it." Ursula insists. She'd not been invited to drop by the Divination Tower in her free time this year. Can't imagine why.
