Dear Parent/Carer,

Year 4 Educational Visit - The Living Rainforest

Tuesday 19^th July 2022

To support our Enquiry learning and as part of our Rainforest topic, a visit to The Living Rainforest has been organised. 

The Living Rainforest is an educational experience and resource supporting learning across the curriculum and enabling children to experience an exciting learning environment which links to their areas of study. With over 700 species of tropical rainforest plants and animals, including free-ranging birds, butterflies and small reptiles, children will have the opportunity to walk around inside the glass house and see nature close up. They will also have the opportunity to ask questions relating to the rainforest and take a tour relating to Amazing Adaptations of animals in the rainforest.

The children will be in small groups, supervised by a familiar adult at all times.  

When:                                     Tuesday 19^th July 2022

Transport:                              Coach

Dress:                                     School uniform and sensible, flat school shoes.

Departure from school:        9:00 am prompt - children will need to arrive at school at the                       normal time.
