On Monday, November 16, 2015, our Grade 3 students will be visiting the Gardiner Museum. This field trip relates to our Social Studies Unit on Heritage and Identity as well as Visual Arts unit. At the Gardiner Museum, students will be participating in several activities (i.e., the Native North America: slide presentation, artifact handling, and follow up activities) and a tour of the gallery (Kent Monkman's temporary installation). In the afternoon, students will work with a ceramic artist and create a sculpture out of clay.
We will be departing Pleasantville P.S. at 9:00 a.m. and returning by 3:00 p.m. The cost of this trip is $25.00 per student, which includes a full day program at the Gardiner Museum ($15), and bus fees ($10.00).
Students are required to bring a lunch (nut free). Please do not send any money with your child. Students must bring a shoe box with them to take their art creations home. If you would like to volunteer, please indicate your interest below. Volunteers will be chosen on a first come first serve basis, and due to limited space in the school bus, volunteers will need to drive to the Gardiner Museum.
We kindly ask that you return this permission slip no later than Wednesday, November 11, 2015.
