Dear Year 2 Families,
On Monday 6th November, Year 2 will visit Kadoorie Farm as part of our Discovery Unit ‘Brilliant Botanists’. We have been studying plants, seeds, botany, minibeasts and other living things, and this trip will offer the children real-life experiences to consolidate their learning.
Students are to arrive at school at the normal time of 8.25am, and buses will depart at approx. 9.15am. The children will have their snack at the farm, explore the amazing wildlife on offer, enjoy their lunch and then depart Kadoorie Farm at approx. 1.45pm.Â
The cost of the trip will be HK$100 per child, which includes entrance to the farm and transportation.Â
Payments must be made by Wednesday 1st November 2023 for your child to attend. Please submit payments of cash or cheque (payable to Discovery Bay International School) to the main office. If you wish to pay via Bank Transfer, please use the following details:
