Sponsored Nature Hunt
Dear Parent/ Carer,
Sponsored Nature Hunt
Caroline, our Early Years Worker, has organised a Nature Hunt on Thursday 31 March.
We are asking Parents/Carers to sponsor children to try to find as many different hidden things in our Forest School Area at the back of our playground.
Clues will be set out for children to solve and to identify different types of plants, animals, trees and insects which live in this area. Caroline has created trickier clues for older children and fun activities for younger pupils.
After completing the Nature Hunt our Catering Staff are offering fruit cups for each child with fruit chopped and ready to eat.
Parent Pay is open from Monday 21 March until Friday 1 April for parents to pay in sponsor money.
We are asking Parents/Carers to consider sponsoring their child to raise money for our school fund.
We use the school fund to supplement school activities like swimming, transport for trips, art and craft materials and sports equipment.
All children will participate in the Nature Hunt and on this day do not need to wear school uniform. Children need to wear clothing which is suitable for being outdoors- joggers/ leggings/ sweatshirt/
t-shirt and a jacket in case of rain.
We are very much looking forward to this activity and a chance to be outdoors.
If any Parent/ Carer has a PVG and is able to spare a few hours to help direct children around the nature area, please call the school office to arrange a suitable time.
Thank you in advance for all your help and support.
Yours faithfully,
Mrs. A. Hope
