Hadrian’s Wall Hike – Saturday 22nd September 2012

Dear Parents,
On Saturday 22nd September the Cubs will be hiking along Hadrian’s Wall to Housesteads Fort and Museum.  The day has been designed to allow the Cubs the opportunity to put last terms map-reading and navigation to good use.
A bus will be leaving Trinity School at 9.15am and we expect to be back around 5.00pm.  All that the Cubs will need for the day is their waterproofs, boots or really strong trainers (boots are better and definitely no wellies), a packed lunch and a rucksack.   The Cubs will be shown how to pack a rucksack for a days hike on Wednesday and should pack their own bag (parental supervision may be required as smuggled contraband could need to be removed!)
The cost for this will be £5
(Spending money is optional but there will be a chance for the Cubs to purchase drinks or an ice-cream at Housesteads.)
If you would like your child to take part then please can you complete the permission slip on the letter emailed to you all and contact return it by Wednesday 12th September along with your payment.  We appreciate that this is a tight timescale but to get the best price we need to confirm our bus size this week.  If you have any questions or queries please feel free to contact me.
