They are the only year group to go onto the pier. This is mainly due to the low barrier on the pier. • The order of the classes departing from school are: -Reception, Year 1, Year 2, Year 3, Year 4 and Year 5.

  5. The trip day (4) • One coach company has provided us with all the coaches – 7 in total. • Some classes/year groups have been split due to the number of seats on the coaches. • I will place numbers on all the coaches on both the front and the back of each coach. Please board the correct coach. This will be your coach for both the outbound and return journey.

  6. The trip day (4) • There will be a stop at one service station. Exit Junction 8 off M11 to SERVICES called ‘Bishop Stortford Services’ . • The journey time is approximately 3 hours (this includes the time at the service station) • The Office staff are going by car and will leave with the first coach. They will take the lollipop stick to help the children cross the road.

Each wrist band has the school’s mobile phone number written on it. • BEACH AREA - The wrist bands are colour coded to the area where we are sitting. Please stay on the correct side.

  11. Once we arrive at Walton we will eat our lunch. There is a grass verge where the children can eat their lunch. The toilets are also situated nearby. The life guards have told us that we can go onto the beach around 1pm. This is due to the tides. ARRIVAL AT WALTON-ON-THE-NAZE

  12. The beach at Walton is stunning and we should all have an enjoyable day. There will be an opportunity for each child to receive one FREE ice-cream. Your class teacher will give you a voucher for every member in your group. The ‘CENTRAL KIOSK’ is where you can receive the ice-cream. DURING THE DAY

  13. Entertainment • There will be a sandcastle competition and the judges for the Infants are Ms Hooper and Mr Austin. The judges for the Juniors are Mr J Woodfield and Mrs O’Sullivan.

  14. THE SEA • We will have some adults who do not have a group of children. • The adults will enter the sea up to their knees. They will hold a piece of bunting (string with flags on them) and have a whistle with them. The children will PADDLE in front of them. The whistle will be blown if the children go behind the bunting.

  15. RETURN JOURNEY • Please ensure that you take the children to the toilet before we depart. • The Infants will depart first and the Juniors will follow after them. • We will stop at the same SERVICE station on the return journey.

  18. THE NEXT DAY (16th July 2008) • Due to such a late evening, the children will be allowed to come to school at 10.00am • However, if you are a working parent and need to leave your child/children at 8.50am, please do so. There will be some members of staff in school.
