What You Need to Know
On the morning of the trip, the students will be divided into teams. One student from each team will receive a camera. The camera person will take pictures of the team, the animals, and other fun sights at the zoo.
All students should wear blue shirts. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes because we will be walking all day. Please bring a bag lunch and a drink. We will have a picnic at the park inside the zoo. Bring a healthy snack, such as a piece of fruit and a drink, for later in the day.
When we are at the zoo, always remain with your team. Do not leave the team without asking permission from the team leader.
Feeding the Animals
The only animals that students are allowed to feed are those in the Children's Zoo. Special food can be bought at the zoo for 25 cents and given to these animals. Do not feed your lunch to them. It is not good for the animals.
Parent Information
The cost is $1.00 for students and $3.00 for adults to enter the zoo. The students will leave the school at 9:00 A.M. and return at 2:30 P.M.
Please sign the permission paper. Return it along with the money to your children's teacher by Monday, May 2. Both the permission paper and the money should be in an envelope with your child's name written on the outside.
