We have an exciting opportunity to enrich our history unit with a trip to Leicester Museum & Art Gallery on Wednesday 29th January 2025 from 9:30-14:45.
The day will be split into two sections. The first being a 90-minute Ancient Egyptian Workshop run by the museum where the children will learn all about the life of an Ancient Egyptian and their cultures and beliefs. They will also learn about mummies and why they were such a big deal to the Ancient Egyptians. The second session will allow the children to explore the Ancient Egyptian section of the museum to enhance the learning we will be doing in our history unit.
The children will need to take a packed lunch which they will eat on arrival. This trip will cost £15.00 which is available to pay in the trips section of your Arbor app by Tuesday 14th January 2025.
In agreement with the governing board, we have made the decision to run trips in a different way this school year. We will still be offering the same trips but will not be advertising our day trips to the children and instead will send letters directly to parents via Arbor.
Day trips will continue to be free for children on our Pupil Premium Register.
Any questions please come and speak to me.
Kind Regards,
Mr Heale – Class Teacher
