Dear Parents and Carers of 3B,
As you will know, we have our first Beech’s Base session in school, on Wednesday this week, all afternoon. This will be some curriculum-based activities and some exploratory/enrichment ones, in the woodland environment at the bottom of NJS school field.
Please ensure you send your child in wearing clothing that is weather-appropriate / waterproof coats etc, which will keep them warm and dry, i.e.: clothing fairly similar to their Chetwynd Deer Park clothing, wearing a pair of normal trainers for the inside, and their wellies in a bag for the afternoon. The afternoon will go ahead if it it raining, unless the weather is torrential / dangerous.
They will need clothing that they don’t mind getting muddy, as it can be boggy down there. Wellies ARE advised – trainers / walking boots may get heavily soiled by the mud. Several children have, in the past, worn their new white trainers – suffice to say, they weren’t ‘white’ ever again! Long sleeves and trouser legs are a requirement, as they may encounter nettles and thorns. Some children occasionally do wear waterproof over-trousers if they have them – its up to you.
As always, if you need to, please ask questions of us on the yard first thing/ straight after school, or you can email directly.
Kind regards,
Mr Butler
