Year 2 Tower of London trip information

We are very excited about our trip to the Tower of London on Monday. The following information has been sent home in book bags but just in case:

Please bring your child to school as early as possible (gates open at 8.40am), we will hope to be on the coach by 9am. If you are running late please ring the school, we won’t leave without you!

Your child should come in school uniform along with a suitable coat (please check the weather forecast).

You child needs a packed lunch in a drawstring bag or small backpack (PE bags are ideal and are being sent home today). Please remember no fizzy drinks and no food containing nuts as there are nut allergies in the class. It would also be a good idea to pack a snack for later in the day as we have an early lunch slot.

The coach journey is unpredictable due to London traffic and there are no toilet facilities on the coach, so if your child often needs the toilet it would be a good idea not to give them too much to drink before the journey. Everyone can go to the toilet before we set off.

Your child may bring a small card game for the coach journey that can be easily carried in their bag (e.g. Top Trumps), but strictly no electronic devices.

We aim to be back at school by 3.15 but if there are any traffic delays we will phone the school office and they will contact you.

Finally, thank you to all the parents who volunteered to help out (so many!) and sorry we couldn’t bring you all, but there will be other opportunities this year to come in and help with trips and events.

We look forward to seeing you on Monday.
