Year 5 Science Museum Trip

Dear Parents and Guardians, 

I am pleased to inform you that Year 5 will be going on a school trip to the Hong Kong Science Museum on Tuesday 26th September. 

The purpose of the trip is to give the children the opportunity to see hands-on examples of the principles they have learned about in the current Discovery unit, Full Power. The Science Museum is the perfect place to explore these concepts, with a wide range of exhibits, including electricity, magnetism, potential and kinetic energy, as well as much more. 

All four classes will leave by bus shortly after registration at 8.30am, spending the morning in the museum, then having a packed lunch on their return to school. The students should wear their regular school uniform and bring a snack and a packed lunch on the day. 

We would welcome parent volunteers to support this trip, and are aiming for three volunteers per class. Please notify your child’s class teacher if you are interested in joining us by emailing the school using [email protected]. Please place FAO: [Class Teacher’s name] in the title. 

The Science Museum is free for students to visit, so the bus is the only expense. This is HK$50 per child, to be paid by cash, cheque or bank transfer. 

Please give permission for your child to take part in this trip using this jotform. 

All cheques should be made payable to ‘Discovery Bay International School Ltd.’

Online bank transfer is also accepted, provided that the transfer slip and student information are emailed to the accounts office ([email protected]) for reconciliation purposes.

The school’s bank details are as follows: 

Bank name: Discovery Bay International School Limited 

HSBC account number: 111-459624-001

Many thanks,

Sarah Marshall

Year 5 Year Group Leader
