Dear Parent/Carer,

RE: 100% Design Live Visit

I am writing to inform you of the upcoming visit to “100% Design” at Olympia, London. The visit will be beneficial to your child’s learning, as it will engage them with design in the real world and assist them with the completion of their A-Level coursework.

The visit will take place on Friday 25th September 2015 departing at 9:00 a.m. from the Academy and returning at approximately 4:30 p.m. We will be travelling by public transport.

The cost of the visit will be £17.50 per student. If you wish for your child to partake in the visit please complete the attached permission slip and return it to meno later than Tuesday15th September 2015. Payment will need to be made via ParentPay or PayPoint by the same date. If you wish to pay cash at a PayPoint, please contact Mrs A. Lee for a barcoded letter as cash and cheques are no longer accepted at the Academy. Current legislation permits us to ask only for a voluntary contribution towards the cost of the visit. No student will be discriminated against on the grounds of inability to pay. However, if sufficient money is raised through contributions, then unfortunately this visit will have to be cancelled.

Students will be expected to bring or purchase a packed lunch. They should be dressed in smart casual clothesand wear comfortable shoes, as the day will involve a lot of walking. I must emphasise that it is not advisable to bring valuable or excessive items, as students must look after their own property during this visit and we cannot take any responsibility for the loss of money, mobile phones or other equipment.

Students should bring the following on the visit:

  • A notebook, pencil and writing equipment
  • Packed lunch
  • Camera (optional), Smartphone

If you have any queries regarding this visit, please contact me on 01322 620400 or email .

Yours faithfully

Miss C Gibson
