Clipsal 500

As many of you may know, the Early Learning Centre takes an excursion to the Clipsal 500 every second year. We have had many queries from parents who would like to be a participant on this excursion.
Three Year old and Four Year old classes will be taking a short trip to the track and, as in past years, we will sit to watch part of a race, walk to see the go carts, cross the bridge for a snack, walk through the display alley and then return back to school. It is a short trip but is usually noisy, dusty and can be warm. As in past years we will not be able to attend the Clipsal unless we have a strict ratio of 2 children to 1 adult or better. Parents who are planning to join us must buy their own tickets at the gate as we enter. This is a wonderful trip that is a particularly good opportunity for fathers to join us. We will visit the track on Thursday the 11th of March and no child will be able to attend without a signed permission slip that teachers will distribute closer to the date. In the intervening time if you have an interest in joining us please make your interest known to Mrs Porter via e-mail at jporter@pac.edu.au
Thankyou
Mel Bishop
