1. Trips
This is a permission request to cover your child being taken on school trips, swimming lessons, Forest School and sports fixtures (both in and outside of school hours) during his/her time at The Manor. This will apply for trips within the UK and we will send you details of all trips before they take place. We shall inform you about each individual trip; unless your child is in Nursery or Reception, we shall not trouble you for permission slips for each trip. However, for residential trips we do require your written permission (indeed, the signature of both parents is required if the trip is outside the UK). An outline of each year group's trips appears in the Welcome Booklet, though it must be appreciated that occasionally we may feel it necessary to add further activities to enhance your child's learning.
Trips during normal school hours: These are covered by the fees therefore there is no extra charge.
Residential Trips (UK and overseas): Chargeable and added to your bill.
Other Trips (voluntary/out of normal school hours): Chargeable and added to your bill.
The bus companies we use all have appropriate safety restraints (seat belts or lap belts) and the children will be expected to use them at all times, unless written permission is received from you stating otherwise.
Any child who requires an inhaler or AAI will not be allowed off site without them.
Please note that for all trips where home packed lunches are permitted, these must be nut-free.
Parents/Guardians of children in the Early Years (Pre-Nursery, Nursery and Reception classes) will be required to complete a signed consent form for each outing, as well as for swimming lessons.
You can, if you wish, tell the school that you do not want your child to take part in any particular school trip or off site activity.
2. Manor Association of Parents (MAP) information sharing.
The Manor uses a website called Classlist.co.uk for parents to communicate with each other.
Upon arrival at the school we would like to share the contact information for both parents with the relevant Form Representatives so that they can make contact with you, introduce you to the year group and answer any questions you may have.
If you would rather we did not circulate these details we do understand and would be grateful if you could indicate this below.
