As part of our theme ‘Escape from the Zoo’, year 1 and 2 children from Picasso & Matisse class are going to visit Twycross Zoo on Friday 1st September. Coaches will be departing from school at 9:30am, and will be returning for the end of the school day.
Children will need to wear their school jumper/cardigan, but can wear jeans, tracksuit bottoms or leggings etc. They should also wear suitable footwear e.g trainers or wellies. We will be outside for most of the day, so depending on the weather, please provide your child with a raincoat or sun hat and sun cream. Please could you also ensure that the sun cream is applied before school.
You will need to provide your child with a packed lunch and a non-fizzy drink in a sports bottle.
In order for us to run the trip, we will require £14 per child to cover the cost of the coach and the entrance fee. Please pay via ParentMail by 25th August 2017.
