Waitomo Caves Trip

 

Dear Parents and Caregivers,

Thank you to all those people who returned the feedback form last term about our proposed trip to the Waitomo Caves. A large majority indicated that you would be happy to go ahead and pay the full price of $30.80per child for the Waitomo Caves trip. So we are glad to announce that the trip will be going ahead without the need for any fundraising efforts.

Details of the trip: 

Date: Thursday 14^th May (week 4)

Time of departure from school by bus: 8.30am (this time is before the normal school bell, therefore all children will need to be at school by 8.15am on the day, so the roll can be called before departure).

Expected time of return back to school: 3.00pm (again, this is after the normal school bell time. Children will not be released to go home after the trip unless a parent/guardian is present to pick them up).

 

Please fill in the attached permission slip and return to the office in a named envelope with your child’s full payment of $30.80. If paying the full price is a concern for you, you may be able to make arrangements with the office. Please bring your child’s permission slip in and speak with the ladies in the office about this.

Parent Helpers on the day:

We will require six parent helpers from each classroom to support us on the day. If you are interested in coming along on the trip please indicate this on the form below. Please remember that all parent helpers will be required to pay $10pp for their entry to the caves. Do not include this money with your child’s payment, as parent helpers have not yet been selected. Names will be collected and drawn out of a hat to make it fair to all parents who wish to come along. More information about this will come closer to the time. Please note that if you are planning on putting your name forward to be a parent helper, no pre-schoolers, siblings or animals are able to come on the trip.

If you have any queries about the trip please feel free to contact us at school.

Kind regards,

Kirsty Cathcart, Leigh Phipps and Danni Macpherson
