Dear Parent/Carer,

As part of our Year 3curriculumfor next term, we have arranged a visit to The Cleveland Ironstone Mining Museum, Skinningrove, on Tuesday31st October, where we will participate in a number of workshops linked to our new topic, ‘The Stone Age’.

We will travel by coach, which will leave school at 9:10 am and depart from The Cleveland Ironstone Mining Museumat 2:15pm, to arrive back at school by normal 3:30 finish.

To cover the costs of the coach and entry to The Cleveland Ironstone Mining Museum, we ask for a contribution of £7.50per child. This is of course a voluntary contribution, however we would find it difficult to manage these experiences without your support. In addition to our visit, the cost of this trip also includes staff from the museum delivering a session within school the week after the trip. We request that payments are made via ParentPay as we are a ‘cashless’ school. If you have any difficulties with this, please contact the office.

Pupils are not required to wear full uniform, but could they please wear their school jumper or cardigan over their own clothes. They will also need a waterproof coat and warm clothing, such as hats and gloves, if the weather is cold on the day. Please ensure your child is wearing sensible shoes as some surfaces may be uneven.

Pupils will need to take a packed lunch (nut free) and drink (not fizzy). There is a small gift shop, so pupils may take a small amount of spending money (no more than £3.00 please), which they will be responsible for.

The museum have asked if they have permission to take photographs of the children on the visit. This would be used for their own promotional purposes. Please read the information attached, and sign the form if you consent to this. Thank you.

Please return the attached form back to school, to give consent to attend the trip and for photographs to be taken (if appropriate).

If you have any queries about the visit, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you for your continued support.

Year 3 team.
