Dear Parent/Carer of a Year 3 pupil,

RE: Trip to the Natural History Museum

As part of our creative curriculum, Year 3 will be going on a school trip to the Natural History Museum, London as part of our topic ‘Quakes and Shakes’.  The children will have an opportunity to explore the exciting world of earthquakes and volcanoes in an action-packed Science show and will also get a chance to explore the Earth hall.  Children will have an opportunity to make observations, answer questions and make sketches.

We leave at 9:00 am on Wednesday 21^st February 2024 and aim to return by 3.15 pm. We are using public transport to get to South Kensington Station.

The cost of the trip is £3.00 which should be paid on SCOPAY TRIPS & EVENTS.

There is no requirement for schools to ask parental permission for trips that take place within the school day. However, if you have any concerns about your child attending this trip please speak to your child’s class teacher.

If you would like to pre-order a free school packed lunch for this trip, you must complete the online form below by Monday 5^th February 2024. This is to ensure that the kitchen staff have sufficient time to order in the correct food.

Alternatively, you can provide your child with a home-made healthy packed lunch which should NOT contain fizzy drinks, sweets, or nuts (due to pupil allergies). Lunch needs to be fully disposable and in a named carrier bag.

Your child must have a suitable coat and appropriate shoes on this day, as we shall be going whatever the weather!  

Please do let your class teacher know if you would be available to support a group on this trip.

Thank you for your continued support,

Year 3 Team
