Year 5 and 6 Museum Trip

Dear Parents/Caregivers

 

On Monday 9 June our senior students will be visiting the Waikato Museum as part of our Big Learning topic for this term. We will be exploring 150 years of Hamilton and investigating our own family history.

 

This is a valuable experience for our students as it allows them to see the history of Hamilton in an interactive way. This trip will include 3 sections:

• An exhibition tour of Hamilton Stories from founding the town until present.
• A history detective walk around the CBD
• Model making

 

The cost of this trip is $11.00 which includes the bus to and from the museum. Please return permission slip and payment to the school office no later than Wednesday 4 June.

 

Rooms 12 and 13 will be leaving at 9am and will be returning by 12pm. They will need to take morning tea with them.

 

Rooms 14 and 15 will be leaving at 12pm. Please note that Rooms 14 & 15 will be arriving back at school later than normal on this day. We aim to be back to school between 3:00 and 3:15pm

 

We will also require 4 parent helpers to attend per class. It is free for parent helpers to attend with us.

 

Thank you,

The Pohutukawa Team
