We have organised and funded two days for the children to enjoy outdoor learning locally.  The dates will be Monday 4th July and Tuesday 5th July, in order not to incur coach costs, which would have to be passed onto the parents, we would very much appreciate it if the children could be dropped off at a drop-off point near Copsgrove at 9.15am and picked up at the drop-off point at 2.45pm.  A map is available from the school office.

With the director of the venue we have organised a full two days’ worth of activities ranging from playing team games, camp fires, marshmallow melting, scone twist making and den building.  In order for your child to enjoy this activity in all weathers it will be advisable to provide your child with the following.

• Backpack that they can carry themselves
• Waterproof coat
• Waterproof leggings (optional and dependent on weather)
• Old outdoor clothing suitable for getting messy in
• Gardening gloves for den building (optional)
• Sturdy footwear for outdoor ie. welly boots with thick socks or walking boots
• Lunch and a good sized drink to sustain your child for the day
• Sun cream that your child can apply to themselves

We will be outside for the two days.  If it is wet there is limited shelter to protect us from the rain, so we can only stress the importance of the children being suitably dressed and equipped. We will also be exposed to insects and pollen etc, so it would be useful to know whether we could administer Anthisam cream or Waspeze to your child if they get stung. There is a slip to fill in and give consent to this.  Also we would like to draw your attention to the possibility of children who are prone to allergies or hay fever to carry any necessary medication should they require it to alleviate any symptoms should they arise during the day.

Finally, in order for your child to enjoy this exciting, busy two day experience they need to be feeling 100%, if not it is advisable not to send them in.  If they become unwell during the day, we will be required to contact you and get your child to the drop-off point in order for you to pick them up. This in turn will leave the group of children left with an adult short whilst ensuring your child is dealt with.

Please fill in the necessary paperwork to help us and your children have a fun two days with as little problem as possible.

Yours Sincerely

I Warren and J Hayes KS1

Also, please research the difference between compound, complex and simple sentences to discuss when we come back!

I hope you are all having a wonderful Easter Break.
