Dear Parents/Carers
We have arranged to take the Year 6 children not attending the PGL residential trip on a trip to Phasels Wood Activity Centre, Kings Langley. This will take place on Wednesday 23 October 2019.
The children will need to wear suitable warm outdoor clothes, that you do not mind getting wet and muddy!
The coach will be leaving the school at 9.15am and aims to return at approx. 3.00pm We will keep you fully informed regarding the return journey.
The children will need a packed lunch on the day. However, they can bring their lunches in a rucksack as this will be easier to carry around all day.
NO GLASS BOTTLES, CANS OR SWEETS PLEASE.
Those children who receive Free School Meals, can pre-order one via the School Gateway app.
The cost of this trip will be £10.00 per child, which will cover the cost of entrance and the coach. This can be paid online via the School Gateway payment system along with giving parental consent. If you require assistance downloading the app, please see below or pop into the office.
Cash or cheque are also accepted. Please can cheques be made payable to Galley Hill Primary School.
Please can we make you aware that when trips are arranged, the cost is based on the total number of children in that particular year/class group. Depending on venue, we usually have to pay in advance. If for any reason your child is not in school on the day of the trip, unfortunately, we will not be able to refund you as payment to the venue and transport will have already been paid for.
Thank you for your support in this matter.
Unfortunately, if insufficient funds are received, the trip will have to be cancelled. If you have any queries or difficulties paying this, please contact the office.
Yours sincerely
