Imagine the Night Sky

Dear Parents,
As you are aware, next term our unit will be based around light and called “Shadowland”. We have, this week, been informed of an interactive exhibition for children called Imagine the Night Sky at the Adelaide Festival Centre Art space. Whilst the timing is not entirely convenient we feel that it is a wonderful provocation for next term’s unit and an opportunity that we would like to offer the children. We have scheduled an excursion to this exhibition for next Friday and will require lots of adult assistance. We will travel by public bus (half the fun!) down North Terrace and walk from the corner of North Terrace and King William Street down King William to the Festival Centre, allowing our children to encounter the city. Permission slips will be placed in children’s pigeon holes on Monday, please return them as soon as possible and contact Mrs Dry if you would like to accompany us on this trip. Unfortunately due to the nature of our travel arrangements, younger siblings will not be able to join us. For children who do not attend on a Friday the exhibition is free and available to be viewed on Tuesday to Saturday between 10am and 3pm.
We apologise for the short notice.

What: Imagine the Night Sky
When: Friday 28th May
Time: 10.00am
RSVP: as soon as possible

Kind regards
Mel Bishop
