Field Trip Details

We are very excited about our trip to Ganyard Hill Farm on Friday!

PAYMENT:
Please send your child’s filed trip money  and permission form in by Wednesday! The cost is $15.00, and we ask that you please pay online at: http://osp.osmsinc.com/wakenc/

If you are unable to pay online, please send in a check for $15.00 written out to Joyner Elementary.

The cost of the trip includes: transportation to and from the farm, crop mazes, corn crib, observation bee hive, hayride tour, etc. as well as picking a pumpkin from the pumpkin patch!

CHAPERONES:

Thank you in advance to those of you who have volunteered for this field trip. Please send me an email confirming that you are interested in chaperoning. You must be a registered WCPSS volunteer. If you have not registered to volunteer, you will not be able to independently escort children around the farm. If you would like to register to volunteer, please do so in the Joyner library. It only takes a few minutes and is well worth it!!

·      Chaperones will need to pay $10 upon entry.

·      You will be assigned a group of children that you will escort around the farm.

·      You will be supplied a first aid kit and a map of the farm upon arrival.

·      Unfortunately, (and probably to your relief!), parents are not allowed to ride the bus so we recommend that you follow behind the bus or carpool with other Joyner families. We will be leaving Joyner at 9:30a.m. and departing from the farm at 12:30.

·      Bring a camera!! Please bring a camera and take pictures of your group. I will then post your pictures on our blog for all to see!

·      Thank you in advance to those of you who have volunteered for this field trip. Please let me know, if you have not already, if you are planning on chaperoning!

 LUNCH:

Every child and chaperone needs to bring a lunch/drink in a disposable lunch bag.  Please do not put your child’s lunch in their lunch box!

Please write your child’s name on the front of their disposable lunch bag.  It is best if you send a lunch that does not need to be kept refrigerated.

WHAT TO WEAR?
Dress your child in jeans and tennis shoes.  We just received our JYJ Kindergarten t-shirts and we will change into them prior to leaving.

OTHER INFO:
Please DO NOT be late on this day!  We will have a lot to do check and double check before we leave for the farm that morning.   

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or payment concerns.
