Teacher:   Everyone? Please listen. I want to tell you about our trip next week. Every year, we visit a museum. Last year, we went to a history museum, but this year it’s the Science Museum in London. There’s an exhibition on at the moment that I want you to see. It’s about space and I know many of you would be very interested in it.

We’re going next Thursday, so please ask your parents to fill in the travel form and return it to me on Monday, at the latest. Then I can go and get the travel tickets. The school bus isn’t big enough, so we’re going by train.

Now it’s free to get into the museum so you just have to pay £5 for travel and a bit more for food. That’s £7.50 in total. We’re going to have lunch in the museum restaurant so you don’t need to bring sandwiches. But we need to walk to the museum from the station so remember to bring your raincoat because it may be a wet day.

Guide:   Welcome to Amersham House. I’m your guide and I’d like to tell you something about the tour. It will last 45 minutes. There is then a 20-minute talk about the history of the house. It’s a beautiful day, so this will be in the garden next to the lake. After the talk, you may want to go to the café. You can buy hot and cold drinks there, and also sandwiches and cakes. You will find postcards, books and souvenirs in the gift shop. It closes at five o’clock and you will probably need 20 or 30 minutes there. You can see from the map all the sites with names and specific information. Visitors must stay in the public areas.

There is a lot to see at Amersham House and you may want to come back again. There is a special offer in August. Tickets are usually £5 for students, but they will only be £3.50. Now, let’s begin the tour.
