How to comfort child about residential

[PoliwagPie]

My 11 y-old DD has been constantly worrying about her upcoming residential trip. She has 4 other friends who all want to be together, but there are only cabins of 4. All of the other girls are either quite nasty and practically bullies, or are quite childish and people she doesn't get along with.
There have been a lot of tears and I have tried my best to comfort her, but she is still very stressed. Any ideas?

The other girls in the class can’t all be childish or bullies. It might be a good opportunity to make friends with other girls so she has a wider friend group. And then during the day she can still see her friends.

Speak to her class teacher and find out how they are arranging the cabins.

Speak to the school and see if they will split the group of 4 in half so that she can share with 2 of them?

I went to speak to the class teacher when ds1 was going on residential as there had been some very sly bullying and I was worried he would end up in the same room as the bully. She was very understanding and we organised a suitable arrangement.

Room assignments for this kind of thing are a minefield, the teachers will have a plan. Talk to them about your concerns.
