TRIP TO MABLETHORPE – WHAT TO BRING AND ON THE DAY
INSTRUCTIONS
Monday 1st June 2015
Dear Parents,
This letter is about what to do and things to bring for the Mablethorpe trip on
Wednesday 10th June. It will be on the Year 1 Letters section of the Website
if you want to check again just before the day of the trip.
Please make sure you arrive at school on time at 8.45am.
Collect your child at 5.30pm from the bottom of Haddon Close. Obviously with
the travelling involved, we cannot guarantee an exact return time so a text will
be sent to the first number on your contact list on the form for today to let you
know of any delays, of more than a few minutes.
If your child normally takes travel sickness pills on family journeys, or if you
think that coach travel may make them sick, please ensure that they have the
usual dose. Give any pills for the return journey to Mrs Stevenson on the
morning of the trip, in a named envelope (with instructions for how long before
return travel to take written on the envelope).
Please look out for the weather forecast and send appropriate clothing. Children
need to wear their blue school jumper, but full uniform is not required. Also,
Mablethorpe can be a very windy coast, so an extra layer will be a good idea.
Sensible shoes are a must and no jeans, as if they get wet, they just don’t dry!!
(Everything name labelled please.)
Please send your child with:

A named waterproof coat (– preferably a cagoule style would be
best so it can be folded into the rucksack if and when we do get
some sun!)

Named sun-tan lotion

A named sunhat (sunglasses optional – named)

A named lypsyl etc.

Packed lunch, including a drink (no fizzy drinks or glass bottles) in
a named carrier bag so we can get rid of the rubbish – unless you
have ordered a packed lunch from the school kitchen.

A named water bottle

A named bucket and spade

A named hand towel

A named rucksack to put everything in.
One of our activities is to visit the Lifeboat Shop after our Lifeboat
presentation. Your child can bring up to £3 spending money for this if you wish.
This is of course optional. If you do decide to send money, please send it in a
named purse which we will collect from the children first thing in the morning
and look after for them until they visit the shop.
Many thanks for all your support.

TRIP TO MABLETHORPE – PARENT HELPERS
Monday 1st June 2015
Dear
Many thanks for your offer of help on the trip to Mablethorpe. I had 8 offers
of help and so am asking all of the parents who offered to accompany us.
That means there will be 10 adults (including myself and Mrs Cooper) and
somewhere between 28 and 30 children.
I am sorry but I have to ask you for a contribution of £7 as the coach is so
expensive.
Please return this as soon as possible and let me know if you are still definitely
available to help.
I will hold a meeting with you at 3.30pm on Tuesday 9th June to go over
arrangements for the day. Do attend if you can, but if you can’t attend – don’t
worry – I will have typed up notes that you can read on the day.
Please send in your £7 as soon as possible and complete the contact details on
this form for yourself.
Many thanks.
Mrs Stevenson
