Excursions
Kinder Williams Excursion
We are excited to be off on our first excursion to the PCYC and City Park. The purposes of our trip are to be involved in gross motor challenges and to observe seasonal changes in our environment. We will be leaving school at approx. 9:20am this Friday May 17th and will be returning in the afternoon. Students will need to wear their normal sports uniform, including sandshoes. Everyone will require a PACKED lunch and plenty to drink (NO lunch orders available this Friday). Warm coats and beanies are essential. Parent help is invited. Please see me as soon as possible if you are interested – you must have a current Working with Vulnerable People card.
Many thanks, Melinda Williams
2-3 Glen Excursion
On Thursday May 30th, 2-3G will be travelling by bus to the Gorge to continue our First Tasmanians inquiry. We will be led by Tasmanian Aboriginal Historian Geoff McLean and will be learning about the Gorge and its connections with, and significance to, First Tasmanians. We will be looking at features of the Gorge from a First Tasmanians perspective, why it was important to them and learning about local resources used.
The bus will leave school promptly at 9:15am in the morning and return to school by 2:30pm. All students need to wear their PE uniform and bring a school jumper and a windproof jacket as the Gorge area may be cold. Students will also need a packed recess, lunch and a large drink. NO RECESS OR LUNCH ORDERS on this day.
If any parents are able to assist with this excursion could they please speak to Ms Glen. It is a requirement for accompanying parents to have a current Working With Vulnerable People card.
