Legoland trip 14th June 2013

 

As part of our preparations for the excursion to Legoland the staff undertake a site visit. Miss Hatch has kindly provided us with an indication of some of the atractions and information that will hopefully make your trip memorable.



As you are aware our summer trip to Legoland is less than a fortnight away. The buses have been booked and our attendance at the park confirmed. Please read the following information which will hopefully help you to make the most of your day.

We have booked 4 Ferris busses which will leave school at 7:00am. Futher details with your bus allocation will be sent out next week. The buses will also leave Legoland at 5pm.

Duplo Valley is now open so be prepared to get wet. You are encouraged to take bathers and a towel if you visit this area. Duplo Valley is full of animals and Lego sculptures which spout water. Look out for the big red Lego brick which once filled with water, tilts and drops its confers on the people below. Also a change of clothes is recommended if you are willing and wanting to go on the water rides as you will get wet. Alternatively you can wear a poncho or purchase one in a shop for £3.50.

Photographs, magnets and keyrings can be purchased at a cost of £8 each. There is also a deal where you can purchase four from a variety of rides for £20.

A soft drink will cost approximately £3 though you can buy a refillable cup for £7.50. This can be refilled as many times as you like throughout the day at most kiosks and restaurants.

There are several places around the park to purchase food. At the kiosks there is ice cream (£3), donuts, waffles and hotdogs (£4-£6.50). There are also places to purchase baguettes, fried chicken and burgers or you can have a meal in one of the family restaurants (£5-£10).

If you're not so keen on rides take a look around MiniLand and walk amongst world famous landmarks. There are also several playgrounds and a maze to entertain the children. A puppet show can be found near Duplo Valley and a Pirates stunt show can be found in Lego City. Times for each show are displayed near the events.

All rides have two height restrictions. The first height is to ride alone, the second is to ride with an adult. If a child does not meet the minimum height they will not be able to ride. If you're unsure of your child's height there is a measuring service available at LEGO City Guest Services so children only have to be measured once and a band will be given for them to wear indicating their height. Parents and guardians with children who don't meet height restrictions can take turns in taking taller children on rides without having to queue twice. Please ask a member of staff at each ride for further details.

Finally, please wear sensible shoes or trainers as you will walk a fair amount during the day.

We look forward to seeing you all bright and early on Friday 14th June.
