The field trip form comes home crumpled in a backpack, due tomorrow, still unsigned.

Questions

What do permission slips usually need?

Often a signature, emergency contact details and sometimes a small payment or medical notes. Read the whole form so nothing is missed.

How early should I return a form?

As soon as you can. Some trips have limited spaces or need payment by a set date.

Can my older child get the reminder?

Yes, if they have their own WhatsApp. Send “remind my son tomorrow at 7:30am to hand in the signed form”; he taps an invite once.
