Monday 24th June - Wednesday 26th June

We hope that your children are as excited about the High Ashurst trip as we are!  Here are some reminders and some final information before we go.

Kit List

Here is a reminder of the Kit List.  Please ensure that you pack at least one long sleeved t-shirt for your child.  They will not be able to take part in some of the high ropes activities without long sleeves.  Please make sure that everything is named - this will give us the best possible chance of ensuring that everyone comes home with what they took with them.

Arrival and Departure

On Monday morning, we ask that all children arrive at school at the normal time, wearing their own clothes.  We will be leaving school at 10.15am.  

When you get to school, please come to the Office where the Year 4 team will be waiting.  

• Leave your child's suitcase outside the Office as directed. Where possible, please bring a soft suitcase with a name tag. 

• Give any medication your child will need to their teachers.  Medication must be in a sealed bag (a food bag is ideal) with a label with your child's name and instructions for the medication.  If your child is prone to travel sickness, please ensure they take this medication before arriving at school.

• Please bring a packed lunch for Monday in a small rucksack, along with a refillable water bottle.

• Please ensure that your child has a sunhat and that they have applied sun cream before coming to School.

• Please leave any phones or electronics devices at home, these are not permitted on the trip.

• Children do not need to bring any money, there are no shops on site.

We are hoping to return to school around 2:15pm on Wednesday 26th June.  We will send out an email if we are likely to be late. You can collect your child from the School Hall from 2:15pm on Wednesday. Siblings to be collected at normal time.

Room Allocation

The children will be staying in single sex teepees in groups.  The children will find out who they are sharing with when we get to High Ashurst.

Keeping up to date

Keep an eye on Twitter, as we will be posting regular updates about our activities!

In case of an emergency which means you need to get in touch with your child, please contact the School Office between 8.30am and 4pm.  Outside of these hours, please contact 07545 921609. This is a school mobile phone and should only be contacted in case of a genuine emergency, please do not call or message asking for updates about your child.
