Thursday day trip: All children arrive at school by 8:45am (from 8:30am) in their uniform. We will be travelling by bus to the ASB Sports Centre at 9am, returning to school for 3pm. Activities include: futsal, co-operative games, ball skills, gymnastics and basketball. All students go home/to Kelly Club as usual at 3pm.
Thursday overnight: Those students staying over will return to school at 5pm (in mufti) with their gear. We will have a shared dinner and then sleep overnight in Te Rito and Koru Hubs.
Friday: Breakfast and pack up the hub. The children who did not stay overnight can arrive back at school from 8:30am. From 9am there will be a fun day at school for everyone. All children can wear mufti for the day. Morning tea and lunch is provided for children that stayed overnight.
Gear for the day trip: Your child will need to bring a packed lunch, a drink bottle and sports shoes. As it will be a very active day, we would suggest adding a few extra snacks in their lunch box.
Gear for overnight:Mufti clothes for Friday, toiletries, PJ’s, bed roll, pillow, sleeping bag, any medication, soft toy or favourite book if required.
If your child is at Kelly Club on the Thursday morning/afternoon, they can bring their camp gear to school in the morning. There will be space in the hubs for this.
Medication:On the morning of the camp, any medication needs to be handed directly to Gemma (Te Rito Hub) or Jemima (Koru Hub) in a clearly named bag or container. Please include any instructions for administering medication in the bag. The morning of camp tends to be very busy and it can be hard to have in depth conversations ‘on the run’. As such, emailing any important information about your child prior to the morning of camp would be very useful.
We hope your child is looking forward to the day trip and/or camp. Please get in touch if you have any questions to gemma@amesbury.school.nz. A contact mobile number for the camp will be: 0211404628
Kind regards
Cam, Gemma, Jemima, Natalie, Sonali, Steph, Zoe
