Zoo Field Trip - Tuesday June 12

We have our final field trip of the year planned for next Tuesday, June 12.  We will be travelling by chartered bus to the Calgary Zoo.  While at the zoo students will participate in a program called Bear Necessities.  They will also have the opportunity to view the panda exhibit as well as observing other animals that reside at the zoo.

We will be having a picnic lunch at the zoo.  Students are required to bring snacks, lunch and a water bottle.  They will be carrying these throughout the day in their backpacks.

Please ensure that your child is dressed for the weather on that day as this trip proceeds rain or shine.  They will need to wear good walking shoes as we will be spending the majority of the day walking through the zoo grounds.

We ask that students arrive at school by 9:00 on Tuesday.  We will be entering the school early that day so that we may take attendance and board the bus for a 9:15 departure.

As per CBE regulations:
As this is a school field trip, parents and/or siblings other than those who have officially volunteered are not permitted.

Volunteers and students are also not to buy food or drinks while at the zoo.

Thank you for assisting us in following the CBE regulations for field trips so that we can continue to provide educational opportunities outside of the school building.
