School Trip to Paignton Zoo

The whole school will be visiting Paignton Zoo on Tuesday 22nd November 2005 in support of their curriculum work on African habitats and animals.

We will be leaving school at 9.30am and arrive back at approximately 3.30pm.
Children will wear school uniform and need a packed lunch in a backpack, as they will be carrying it around with them.

We are asking you to make a voluntary contribution of £8.75 per child for this trip. The children will be experiencing a special workshop in addition to activities around the zoo.
The voluntary contribution will help pay for the workshops and very expensive coach fare.

Anne will be happy to start taking payments towards this trip if you wish to spread the cost over several weeks. Anyone experiencing financial difficulties please speak to Sue in confidence. If we receive insufficient voluntary contributions we will unfortunately have to cancel the trip.

Please complete the slip below and return it to Anne in the school office.
