Dear Parent Chaperones,
                This is a final reminder letter about the field trip tomorrow, May 18th. 
Our trip to the Adventure Aquarium is here!  This letter is a reminder to help you better serve as a chaperone.  We are planning to leave the school as close to 9:15 as possible.  Please arrive here by 9:00 and report to your child’s classroom.  You will be riding the bus with your assigned chaperone group that you will receive that morning.  The plan is to arrive at the aquarium by about 10:45.  From there you will begin your self-guided tour.  You have the time between 10:45 to 1:00 for a tour of the exhibits with your group.  Don’t forget to visit the gift shop during that time.  Students will be responsible for all items purchased.  You can bring a backpack or bag along to store shopping items if you wish.  Lunch is at 1 PM.  You will find out which group you are in on the morning of the trip.  At about 1:45 we will meet back at a designated area to take a group picture, board the busses, and head home.       
                You will need to bring along a brown bag lunch with your name on it and a drink.  Also, please bring along your cell phone.  We will be exchanging numbers in order to stay in touch throughout the day.  STUDENTS ARE NOT PERMITTED TO CARRY CELL PHONES!  
                The representatives from the aquarium have informed us there will be many schools touring the facilities that day.  It is imperative that all students in your group remain with you throughout the day!
                Thank you for volunteering your time.  Your support is key to the success of our trip!  If you have any questions, please feel free to email your child’s teacher.
Final Reminders:
  • Please bring small bags or purses if you need to bring anything. Starting this month, the aquarium does a bag check.  Anything you bring in must be checked at the counter and will slow your group down from getting in.  We are telling kids not to bring anything with them!  If you want to bring anything with you, the teachers will be happy to check it in for you at the entrance and then deliver it to you once inside the aquarium.  This will give you maximum time to explore with your group.
  • Please do not buy any food for any student on the trip. This is for the safety of our students as we do not know the ingredients of all food products sold & we want to prevent any allergic reactions while on our trip. 
  • Pack your lunch! We will have large containers to carry these into the aquarium and keep them together.
  • Lunch is at 1PM in the Breeze Way. Please be prompt!
  • After lunch, we will have a group picture by the water where we walk into the aquarium. After the picture, we will board the busses to head back to school.
