Dear Parent/Carer
We have arranged for Year 5 to visit Nescliffe, one of our many local beauty spots, on Wednesday 12th July as an end of year treat. It will be a great opportunity to get outdoors and explore the wonderful outdoor space there. We will be leaving school at 9.00am sharp, following morning registration, and returning around 1.00pm in the afternoon.
As the children will not be back in time for school lunch time, they will need to bring a packed lunch on that day, and an additional drink – particularly if it is a hot day (no glass bottles or fizzy drinks please). Those pupils entitled to free school meals will be given a packed lunch by our school meal caterers prior to departure, unless you let the teacher know you will be providing one from home instead. We will be outdoors for the duration of this excursion so the children will need sun cream/sun hats/sunglasses. Likewise, if it rains, they will need a light waterproof coat. Children should also wear appropriate, comfy footwear and clothes for walking lots and for outdoor play e.g. joggers/leggings and trainers. No spending money is required.
The cost of the trip is £4.40, which includes transport and insurance. Payment for this trip should be made via your child’s ParentPay account prior to the date of the trip. Although costs for trips are voluntary, in reality the school has no other means of funding these trips. We hope that everyone can contribute to the trip in some way.
Please note that this visit is covered by the Annual Consent Form for Trips/visits & Medical Information. Please notify the school immediately if there are any changes to your contact/emergency contact details or medical information, or if you do not wish your daughter/son to participate in this trip or any of the stated activities so we can make alternative arrangements for them.
Yours sincerely,
Jane Hilbert
Administration Manager
