Landywood Primary School

As part of our Creative Curriculum at Landywood, children learn through termly or half termly topics. These topics have been carefully selected and planned by our teachers to ensure they engage the children in learning and maximise opportunities available to us.

 

As part of these topics, we also plan ‘Essential Learning Experiences’ (ELEs). These may be day trips out of school, visitors that come into our school or school-based events. We have carefully designed our ELE programme to ensure that each year group has a balance of visits and visitors to provide the children with a variety of learning opportunities.

 

ELE’s can provide an exciting launch to a topic or an opportunity for children to draw a conclusion and apply their previous learning. We will ensure that at least three ELE’s are organised for each class throughout the year.

 

To make it easier for all families, following feedback from parents, we will ask for each ELE payment individually. As you will appreciate, some visits are more expensive than others. Given the rising fuel costs, the coach hire costs have significantly increased. The total amount given to parents covers the entrance costs, travel costs, insurance and any other related costs. Parents can choose to pay the total amount in September, or can pay it in installments over the course of the year using our new electronic payment system. Payment information is available on Scopay.

 

 

Our Exciting ELE's are:

 

Autumn: Wedding - £0 

Spring: Animal Man and Chick Hatching - £6.50 (£2 chick hatching and £4.50 animal man)

Summer: Wolseley Centre- £18.50

Total £25 for the year
