A Typical Visit (Whole day tuition)

A Typical Visit with Full Day Tuition

• When you arrive at Suntrap your coach will be met and you will be led to your classroom. We have two upstairs rooms, and two downstairs. Please let us know in advance if you have any pupils with disabilities which would necessitate using a downstairs room.

• A Suntrap teacher will introduce the topic you have chosen and explain to the children and staff what will be happening throughout the day. They will also inform or remind all present of fire evacuation procedures.

• All adults and pupils will need to bring a packed lunch, which includes a morning snack. The class will have a short break for a snack and toilets. Tea and coffee making facilities are available for staff and helpers. A small donation towards tea and coffee would be appreciated.

• Please encourage pupils to bring wellies and appropriate clothing with them, we may be able to supply some spare wellies and clothing, but supply is limited.

• The Suntrap teacher will then lead the class in the activity which may involve working in the Suntrap grounds or in the forest. If you have booked two teachers the class will be split into two groups, each led by a Suntrap teacher.

• The class will return to Suntrap in time for lunch. Depending on the weather classes may eat indoors or in the garden. Pupils will be the responsibility of the class teacher during lunchtime. It may be possible to have a playtime after lunch. If you have booked one Suntrap teacher the class teacher will lead and supervise the playtime.

• After lunch your second lesson will be introduced and led by Suntrap staff. Depending on your choice of topic this may be indoors or outdoors.

• At the end of your day you will be led back to your coach by a Suntrap teacher.

• We have a range of souvenirs for sale if you feel it is appropriate, e.g. note books, pencils for about 50p-£1.

• We regard you as a member of the team, and while a Suntrap teacher may take the lead in an activity, your knowledge of your pupils is vital if they are to get the best out of the day.
