Edited to say Crossed posts. Maybe something can be organised for next year.

Having been involved with this sort of thing for a few years now, I've seen how much bureaucracy goes with it.
There may be other issues beyond the insurance.

If they have similar regulations to school trips run from this country then they may require that prior specific written consent from the Childs parent or Legal Guardian is given. Despite the teachers being in Loco Parentis during the trip they are not allowed to give consent for things like this.
So I advise that you get the full picture before you get too carried away.

However if they have permission then perhaps someone in PPrune land can pull a few strings and sort out some cover for them. If we have to have a whip round to pay for it I'd be happy to forgo a few rounds at the bar for a cause as worthy as this.
