Dear Parents,
Our Hogle Zoo Field Trip is nearly here, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12th. Mrs. Bischoff and Mrs. Tiechert will be meeting us there. If any of you have a zoo pass, please let us know as the zoo will not allow them in without paying.
Everyone will need to sign the permission slip which I will get on the blog today!
Here are a few things to know before we go:
1- We appreciate those who have already made their field trip donation. If you haven’t please pay your $15.00 donation to the Q1 office to cover the transportation costs of our scheduled field trips this year. We greatly appreciate anything that you can donate for our field trips. Thank you for your generosity! The bus cost for transportation is extremely expensive and these funds are needed to cover the cost so that we don’t have to cancel the field trip.
2- Wear school uniform with RED shirt, sunscreen and good walking shoes! Please dress for the weather.
3- Bring a cold sack lunch from home in a disposable bag with your child’s name. Everything must be completely disposable. There will be no microwaves available.
4- Be on time. Arrive at school by 8:30am. Bus departs at 8:45am. We will leave the zoo around 1:25pm, returning to Quest around 2:00 – 2:30pm.
5- Parent chaperones: Please bring a backpack or bag to carry the lunches of the students in your group. And a lunch for yourself. Please arrive and meet in our room at 8:15am to go over last minute instructions and get a copy of the Zoo Groups. If you are bringing siblings, it is necessary for you to drive your own vehicle. Please be prepared to pay for yourself and any extra children you bring. For those driving, plan on meeting us at the zoo at 9:30-9:45am. The zoo address is 2600 E. Sunnyside Avenue, Salt Lake, UT, 84108.
Current Volunteers: Rachel McClure, Tina Hansen, Jeremy Fong, Tandy Price, Marty Booth (meeting there), Kellie Brixey… did I miss anyone? And yes… I can use more!
Parent Volunteers: We are ALWAYS looking for more volunteers so don’t be shy. You may join your child’s group to help with the group management. Chaperones: If your cell phone number is not correct please email Ms. Wagster to update it on the field trip form in case we need to reach you and your group.
Parent chaperones, thank you so very much for being willing to take care of a group of our kiddos, we truly appreciate you! Please arrive at the school to gather your groups lunches before heading down to meet us at the zoo. We already have our parent bus spots filled for our class and they have been notified. If more spots open up, we will reach out to chaperones.
There are school sack lunches available for field trips. School sack lunches contain an Uncrustable sandwich, applesauce or apple, carrots and shelf-stable chocolate or white milk. Orders MUST be submitted by Thursday, September 7th at 12 . If you would like to order a sack lunch for our Hogle Zoo field trip, please copy and paste the link below and fill out the Google Form for your child, so that we can submit it to the lunch staff.
