Amazon 2023 is currently open for enrollment to current 6th and 7th graders. ***NEW*** With permission from Miss Holloway, current 8th graders may also register for this trip! I know many families have been nervous about traveling due to covid which is why I am extending this rare opportunity. I believe we are already in a much better place health and safety wise and I expect things should be even better (if not normal!) by next year. If you missed out on this year's trip due to covid you have one last chance to sign up and experience the adventure of a lifetime!

Miss Holloway will host an informational meeting on Wednesday, March 16th at 7 PM via Zoom if you would like to learn more. I will have pictures to share of our most recent adventure, feedback from parents and students that have traveled with us, and all of the information for our next Amazon Adventure! Sign up by March 23rd at explorica.com/Holloway-7078 and use code TRAVEL0Y to lock in the current price! Please email lholloway@mursd.org with any questions.

Peru Trip

April 2023

Dear 8th grade students and parents,

My name is Ms. Reardon and I am a World Language teacher at Nipmuc. I have run many trips over the last 14 years at Nipmuc to Italy, Spain, Paris, and the Galapagos Islands. Next year I am offering a trip to Peru during April vacation. Since you will be at Nipmuc next year, you are eligible to travel if you would like to.

The trip will explore the capital city of Lima, Cuzco and the ancient Incan city of Machu Picchu. A detailed itinerary is included with this letter. The price and what is included is also attached.

There is a $100 discount available for students who enroll before Friday, April 29, 2022. Please remember to enter the code Travel4I to get that discount. If you sign up by the deadline and the discount doesn’t work, please reach out to me.

There will be an informational meeting for anybody interested on Tuesday, April 5, 2022. The meeting will be held in the Nipmuc Auditorium. I hope you are able to join us.

If you have any questions about the trip or signing up, please email me @ kreardon@mursd.org

Thank you,

Ms. Reardon
