Trip to Malahide on Thursday

Dear parents and guardians,

On Thursday 22^nd March, the Junior and Senior Infant classes will be going to Malahide Park for an SESE fieldtrip. As our current them is ‘Trees, plants and flowers’ we will be doing some investigation work, followed by a trip to the playground.

The cost of the bus is 3 Euro per child. The bus will leave the school at 9am and pick us up from Malahide Castle at 11.30am.

Please ensure your child is wearing appropriate footwear, and has a rainjacket. We will be bringing our lunches to the park to have a picnic.

Parent volunteers are very welcome. If you’re interested, contact the class teacher.

Kind regards,

Julie, Becky, Mel and Jessica
