Sometimes I go on a school trip with my class and teachers

It's my class trip today

I can  listen to my teacher's instructions and wait before I move

We will wait here
for a bit

I can stay with my group and follow what my teacher asks me to do

everyone! please
stay in pairs

During the trip, it can be busy or loud. I can use my headphones or take a snack break if I need one

If I feel lost or unsure, I can stop and ask my teacher for help

Can you please tell me where the toilet is?

When I follow instructions, I can stay safe and enjoy my trip

Today was so
much fun
