Dear Parents and Carers of 3P,
Just to let you know that 3P have our first Beech’s Base session in school, on Friday 17th October this week, all afternoon. Mr Butler sends his apologies this was not mentioned on the last weekly diary post on Friday last week. There 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 in all weathers, unless it 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,
Mrs Porteous
