Victoria

Dear Parents,

Our field trip to Victoria is finalized. It has not been easy dealing with BC Ferries. When I phoned them in December, they were unable to take reservations for May, so they stated that I should reserve via their email. When they finally gave us our reservations, they gave us 10:00 am and 5:00 pm rather than 9:00 am and 5:00 pm. They haven’t been too helpful in resolving this so far (Although I’m still hopeful that they will give us the 9:00 am reservation).

I think the best thing to do is just to go to the ferries for the 9:00 am sailing. It’s highly likely that we are able to get on even without a reservation as Thursday shouldn’t be too busy. We are planning to leave the school at 7:30 am and should arrive at the ferries around 8:00 am. Of course, there is always a chance we can’t get on the 9:00 am and have to wait until the 10:00 am. In that case, it would affect our lunch, but we should still be fine for the tour of the Legislature and Museum.

We can accept up to 12 parent volunteers. In the beginning, we are asking only for 1 parent per family. If we don’t get enough volunteers, we could bring another. I will be sending the volunteer sheet home Tuesday(tomorrow). It will be first come first serve. There will be a cost of about $52 for parent volunteers to cover the ferries and museum.

Sincerely,

Nick Chatton
