Dear parents and carers,                                                                                                       

Class 5 – Drayton Manor Park Trip – Tuesday 17^th June 2025

For the end of term trip, this year, Class 5 are off to Drayton Manor Park!  We will be leaving immediately after registration and will return to school at approximately 4pm.

The children will be transported to the park via coach and will be accompanied by members of school staff.  All children will require a packed lunch and a labelled water bottle (no glass/cans please).  All children who are FSM eligible will receive a packed lunch (consisting of a cheese sandwich, fruit, yogurt or cheese item, biscuit or cake and a bottle of water) provided by school on the morning of the trip unless you specifically advise you will provide a lunch from home on ParentPay.  

Please be aware all children should wear their school sweatshirt, (Year 6’s can wear their hoodies) and they will need to wear weather appropriate suitable outdoor clothes.  Children may also need sun cream applied before school and a sun hat, or possibly even a raincoat, weather dependent!

Please ensure children have a labelled water bottle (no glass/cans please) to drink during the day.

We would ask that children bring a small rucksack to carry their lunch and water bottle to allow them to be hands free to participate fully.  Please note, children should not bring their mobile phones on this trip, all phones will be kept safe in the school office as usual and returned once children are back at school.

We are delighted to inform parents, NO contributions are being asked for this trip, which would have cost more than £30.00 per pupil! 

School have been awarded a substantial grant (£1000!) from Telford and Wrekin Councillors Pride Fund which is being used to cover transport and admission costs, with St Luke’s School Fund covering the shortfall.

You must still please ensure you confirm the consents by completing the details requested on ParentPay no later than Friday 13^th June 2025 to allow caterers time to order lunch supplies.

We will be photographing pupils participating in activities throughout the day but if you do not wish your child to be included, please ensure you carefully check and annotate the details on ParentPay accordingly.  If you change your mind regarding photographs at any point, please contact St Luke’s prior to the event.

If you have any queries, please contact the school office.

Yours faithfully,

Mr P Duffield

Class 5 Teacher
