Puppet Show

a visit to La Rosa Gardens, Green Bay

Thursday 20th November, 2014

Dear Parents / caregivers

As part of our topic We Are Who We Are, Rooms 15, 16, 21 and 23 will be going on a visit to La Rosa Gardens, Green Bay. This trip has been planned for Tuesday 2nd December.

We will walk as a class, leaving school at approximately 10.30am and will arrive back at school at approximately 2pm.                                                                                      

Your child will need:

• sunscreen and hat
• appropriate footwear                                                                                         
• a packed lunch and a water bottle                                               
• to be in full school uniform

If it is raining the visit will be rescheduled for Monday 8^th of December.

This term we have been learning about different ways that we can give back to others.  While we are at La Rosa Gardens we will participate in a rubbish clean up around the park as our way of giving back to the local community.

The adult/child ratio is 1:6 so we will require parent help for this outing.  If you are able to help please let us know on the permission slip below.

Regards

Teachers
