Dear Parent/Carer

Sea Life Centre Birmingham

The Art Department is keen for all students to reach their full potential and therefore we would like to highlight a great opportunity available to Year 10 GCSE Art students. We have organised a study visit to the Sea Life Centre in Birmingham on Wednesday 2nd October 2024.

The trip is an extension to work the students are doing in school and is a valuable element of their course. It will be a great opportunity for students to draw and photograph sea life first hand.

We shall be travelling there and back by coach. On the day of the visit the students will need to be at school on time so that the coach can leave by 8.30am. We aim to arrive back at Biddenham at approximately 3.00pm.

Students may wear their own clothing and will need to bring a notebook/sketchbook, drawing materials, a packed lunch and their mobile phone to take photographs on the day. Students in receipt of free school meals will be able to collect a packed lunch from the canteen before departure.

To confirm your child’s place on this trip, please provide parental consent via your ParentPay.

If you have any questions regarding this trip, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Thank you for supporting your child in this way.

Yours sincerely,

Lizzie Parker

Head of Visual Arts

Teacher of Art, Graphics and Photography
