Jacob: Are you excited for your class trip this year, Kate?
Kate: Of course! Our class trip is to a forest park. It’s on 20 October.
Jacob: Is it an all-day trip?
Kate: Yes, it is. There’s even a picnic lunch.
Jacob: How wonderful! You can spend the whole day outside! Remember to bring plenty of water.
Kate: Great tip, thanks! What about your class? What’s your class trip this year?
Jacob: We’re going to a natural history museum. Our trip is on 28 October.
Kate: Sounds fun!
Jacob: I hope so. I’m very interested in nature. At the museum, we can learn about lots of different plants, animals and rocks. We get a tour guide for part of our time there, but we also have time to explore the museum ourselves.
Kate: Is it an all-day trip too?
Jacob: No, it’s just a half-day trip.

Good afternoon, Sunshine Middle School students! Do you know about the sports meeting yet? Let me tell you all about it!
The school sports meeting always takes place in October. This year, the event is on 25 October. It is a full day of exciting sports right here on our sports field!
During the event, students can take part in a few different sports. Do you like running? We have lots of different races. We also have basketball and tennis matches. There are lots of prizes throughout the day, including medals for the top three students in each race or match. Not good at sport? Come anyway and cheer on your classmates!
