P6 Outdoor Education 2026 (current P5 children)

NOTES:

Evie, Firth and Rousay will be joining together to take part in the outdoor education days at Firth Primary
It would be good if Evie P6 children could be at Evie school at 9:15am each day to get the minibus to Firth for a 9:30am start
The minibus will leave Firth at 3:15pm to be back at Evie school at 3:30pm at the end of each day
There will be a range of activities on land and sea
Consent and updated medical forms will need to be completed nearer the time, in August 2026
Packed lunches will be needed each day, with an separate drink and snack for break time
Packed lunches can be ordered from the school kitchen or taken from home
A dry change of clothes will be needed each day, and dry towels and swim wear if these have been used the day before
The cost of the 3 day experience is £99 per pupil, please ask at the school if you would like help with the payment

P7 Hoy Trip 2026

NOTES:

Consent and medical forms completed by parents in good time to add to documentation.
All medication forms to be completed by parents the Friday before, medicines to be delivered to teacher morning of departure.
Parents to deliver children to Stromness Pier by 9:40am and be at Pier by 4:50pm on Friday to collect children.
A substantial packed lunch to do until tea time will be required the first day, and a large full water bottle.
Please do not bring sweets and treats, especially to share in rooms, as this is a serious choking hazard.
We recommend a wheely suitcase as this is the easiest for the children to take up the pier themselves.
The children will walk from the pier to the centre, their luggage will be transported, so they will need to wear good footwear for walking on the road and a warm coat for the boat.
Remember to carry inhalers or give them to instructors for the walk.
No mobile phones are permitted.
The cost this year is £341.42 per pupil, understanding that all children will be going.
Please contact the school if you feel you need help with costs – we have a participation fund for this sort of thing so everyone can take part.
