Hello! We are so excited to share information about our next field trip for first and second grade class. We will be going to the Hands On Children´s Museum in Olympia where the kids will be able to see exhibits on art and science. The date for the field trip is Tuesday, February 28th. We will leave the school at 9:50 am and arrive at the museum around 10:30, and head back to the school around 12:30 pm. We will get a free bus ride, which is awesome because it will save us a lot of money. The museum requires one chaperone for every 5 children, so we will need at least ten of them. The FIRST TEN CHAPERONES GET IN FREE. We will do 5 free chaperones for 1st and 5 for 2nd. Any extra chaperones are welcomed, but must also be on the list in order to attend. We will not accept any extra chaperones after 2/17. Also as a reminder that you need to have VIRTUS training in order to be a chaperone for the class.

Basic information:

LOCATION: 414 Jefferson St NE, Olympia, WA 98501

TIME: 10:30 am-12:30 pm (possible extra time for lunch)

COST: The cost per child is still not confirmed because we are waiting for the museum to apply a discount, but it should not be more than 8 dollars.

LUNCH: Each child will be responsible to bring their own lunch to the museum. We will have breakfast or snack at school.

CLOTHING: Children will be inside the museum, we will wear spirit gear (Holy Rosary School t-shirt, and or Holy Rosary School sweatshirt with jeans and sneakers).

FORM OR PERMISSION SLIP: The form will go out on WEDNESDAY, and must be turned in by FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 17th. We will not be accepting late forms, so please make sure you sign the permission slip and bring it back by then. If your child does not have the form, she will have to go to another class when the field trip takes place.

CHAPERONES: If you wish to attend the field trip and volunteer as a chaperone, please let us know via email, by adding your name to the list linked below or in person as soon as possible. Like we said, the museum requires 1 chaperone for every 5 children, which means we need 10 chaperones. These 10 chaperones are covered by the museum. For any additional chaperone, or adult, the fee will be 7$ (we assume).
