Students can take off with Monarch Airlines

HEAD teachers across Yeovil and South Somerset are being invited to help Monarch Airlines make flying fun.

Monarch will be taking three lucky schools from around the country on the day trip of their lives.

The airline will give 600 children -  up to 200 from each school - exclusive use of a Monarch aircraft on April 24, 2013, with a range of fun activities in the air and on the ground.

One flight will depart from Manchester to learn the real story of Romeo & Juliet in Verona, complemented with an acting lesson during the flight.

The second will depart from London Gatwick to visit the Zeppelin Museum in Friedrichshafen with a German lesson during their flight.

The third will depart from Birmingham and spend their day exploring the ancient city walls in Dubrovnik after a history lesson in the air.

The appeal is targeting secondary school children in Years 7-9, aged 11-14, from anywhere in the UK.

Monarch Airlines' Kevin George said: “We all remember what it was like to be a child and the excitement that came with flying, so we’re proud to be promoting our campaign that ‘puts the fun back into flying’ for everyone.

''All schools that enter the competition will be considered and we are looking forward to receiving lots of entries.''

Head teachers need to nominate their schools by visiting www.monarch.co.uk/offers/flights/win-the-best-day-trip-ever. The closing date for entries is Friday, April 5, 2013.
