Outing to celebrate the end of the school year

I am Darren Goh Xun Wei, the president of class Integrity Three, i was asked to write a report, for plans for this year's outing.

Last year's outing trip to Sentosa was fun, but had several complaints. i decided that this year's class outing would be to bottle Tree Park.

Bottle Tree park is very near to our school and is only a 20 minutes ride away. Activities in the park are plentiful as there are organic farm that grows vegetables and even marine life like, Lobsters, sea bass, giant Groupers, giant Prawns and many more. There is also large ponds storing fishes for us to fish. Pupils will be able to feed the fishes with fish food that can be bought from the counter or, bring bread to fed the fishes. There is also a restaurant at th Bottle tree park serving delicious food at low precises. You can even go prawning or fishing for a price at $20 for three hours or buy a fishing set for $10 to catch guppies in a smaller pond. there are adults there as well as a guild at the Bottle Tree park so that the pupils will be supervised.

During the past trip to Sentosa it was not a good value for money as many of the pupils have been there before, during the school holidays or when they were younger. Students had to reach school at 7 a.m in the morning to wait for the bus that took one and a half hours to reach Sentosa causing the student to be very tired. The meals at Sentosa were not provided and the children had to buy food from high priced restaurant. Parents of some children were worried as there was a lack of supervision there.

This years trip will start at 8.30 a.m as to let student have more time to sleep and the buses will arrive at 8 in the morning to prevent any delays. Students need to only pay $40 for their meals and rods for three hours . Most of the price would be subsidized by th school, so the price are restively cheap. This place started a year ago, so not many students have been there, to experience what fishes and prawns are breed and sold in markets. this is an oppunity that students will not want to miss and is a once in a life time experience.

We hope that you will choose this place for this years end of school year's outing as it is a place that the students would not want to iss and have a great time.
