Montshire UPDATE

IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THIS PERMISSION/LETTER COME HOME WITH YOUR CHILD, PLEASE READ AND RESPOND WITH WHETHER YOUR CHILD CAN ATTEND.  

As a culminating celebration of our learning in Kindergarten, and to extend the wonder in each child, we will be visiting the Montshire Museum of Science on Monday, June 15th. The Montshire Museum is one of the top science museums in the country. It is located just off I-91 at Exit 13 in Norwich, VT.

At the Montshire Museum, students will explore over 125 indoor and outdoor hands on science exhibits - interactive bubble station, butterfly collection, live trout, topological puzzles, colony of ants, and so much more. Students will also have an opportunity (weather dependent) to enjoy the water park and walking trails.

Students will arrive at school at 8:00 and depart to the Montshire Museum on busses at 8:30 am. We will return to school for regular dismissal time. Students should bring their own lunch and will eat on the lawns of the museum. Parent volunteers are needed to accompany children while at the museum in small groups, and will need to purchase their own ticket and ride by car (please do not bring siblings). Student transportation will be provided, however a donation of $3 will help to help pay for each child’s admission.

Please return the confirmation and permission slip below. You will receive more specific information in the upcoming weeks about the trip.
