PRIMARY 6-7 (ONLY PUPILS ATTENDING TRIP)

Dear Parent / Carer

Our Primary 6/7 children will soon be off on the Premiership Experience trip to have a fabulous day at the Etihad Stadium for the Manchester City V Southampton match.

In preparation for their visit, we will hand out an Administration of Medicines (Light Green) form which needs to be completed, if relevant, and returned with the medication, clearly labelled showing the child’s name, in a bag on Saturday. Please also include travel sickness medication if needed.

Due to the road works on Fenwick Road, on Saturday morning we ask that the children meet at the bus stop across from Sainsburys.

Please note the following itinerary for the trip:

  • Arrival to Fenwick Road – 06.45
  • Depart from Giffnock at 07.00
  • Comfort break at service station on journey down
  • Estimated to arrive at Etihad Stadium – 12.00
  • Pre match activities at City Football Academy – 12.30
  • Match kick-off: 15:00
  • Comfort break at service station on return journey
  • Returning to Giffnock PS around 22.15 allowing for traffic

Children will need food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They can bring food with them, purchase other food at service station stops, or indeed purchase all of their food at stops. Please make sure your child has packed food and/or money with them for the entire day.

Children are permitted to bring electrical devices to keep themselves entertained at your discretion (mobile phones, tablets, etc.). Please be aware that any electrical items brought are at the responsibility of the child and the school cannot accept any responsibility for damaged or missing items. We are happy for the children to take photographs of this wonderful experience but to be respectful about taking photos of others and not posting on social media.
