A few things to remember:

 Wear school uniform with RED shirt, sunscreen and good walking shoes! Please dress for the weather. Kids will need to wear their badges and be super careful not to lose them!!

Do not send money for food or stores as students will not be allowed to purchase anything.

Bring a cold sack lunch from home in a disposable bag with your child’s name including a drink. Everything must be completely disposable. There will be no microwaves available.

Be on time. Arrive at school by 8:30am. Bus departs at 8:45am. We will leave the zoo around 1:15pm, returning to Quest around 2:00 – 2:15pm. (This is a change from the original announcement.)

Parent chaperones: Please bring a backpack or bag to carry the lunches of the students in your group… and a lunch for yourself. You may eat whenever your group gets hungry. Please arrive and meet in our room at 8:15am to go over last minute instructions and get a copy of the Zoo Groups. Please be prepared to pay for 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. We will need to be back at our buses by 1:05!!

When you get to the zoo, you will need to come in with us so you are paid for. We will take some pictures first and then get everyone into groups. Be prepared for a little chaos.

 Please do not buy food for the kids. It is against our Wellness policy. Do not buy tickets for extras like the train or merry-go-round. The kids are there to learn about animals and their habitats and we don’t ask Chaperones to pay for such things. Thanks for all your help!!
