A Year 1 mum Im friendly with has told me today that reception class and year 1 have booked a school trip to .....Weston Super Mare! So up to 60 kids going to presumably, the Beach! Now her little girl has a severe peanut allergy but aside from this she has decided not to allow her dd to go, and has found that about 10 other parents feel the same way - its just too much/too far/too OTT for children of this age.
She wants to take her dd out for the day and do something else educational with her but the year 1 teacher has told her dd that "she isnt having the day off she will be in school and working hard"! Views please? and what would you do?
