Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.

• Back to school

  Mon 22 Feb 2021 Mrs Rudd

  The Government has announced that schools will reopen to all pupils on the 8th March. We are all really pleased that we can welcome you all back.

   

  The arrangements will be the same as when the children came back in the autumn term. We will have staggered start, end and break times and the children will stay in their class ‘bubbles’ during the day. Full details of this is available on our Covid page.

   

  We continue to review all risk assessments regularly. Our most current risk assessment is available on our Covid page.

   

  We are happy to answer any questions or concerns that you may have that are not answered on our Covid page. You can send your questions via our enquiry email and they will be answered promptly by a member of staff.

• Another half term of lockdown over

  Fri 12 Feb 2021 Mrs Rudd

  Well we have reached the end of yet another half term of lockdown and looking back over this academic year it is wonderful how much has been achieved by staff, pupils , governors and parents.

  Despite the difficulties, the smiles on the children's faces are a reminder of why we do this and why we care that everything is done to the best of our ability.

  This morning I did a shout out to all the staff for everything they do and for going above and beyond. I would also like to give a shout out to parents for working with us, struggling to manage home learning, battling with IT, attempting to learn alongside the children so that you can support their learning and for doing all this whilst trying to live as normal a life as is possible at this time. Well done all of you.

  Well done to all of our pupils, you are amazing, we miss you very much and we cant wait till the lockdown is over and you are all back with us. The children who have been attending school have also been amazing, they  have been trying so hard to develop their learning in very different circumstances. 

  I am so proud of you all.

  Have a lovely half term break everyone, happy Chinese and Korean New Year.

   

• Reminders

  Fri 05 Feb 2021 Mrs Rudd

  Just a quick reminder that our texting service will end in March. After that we will contact you either through the School App or via email. Can you please make sure you have downloaded and registered with 'School App' and that we have a current email so that we can contact you.

  Next week we will be sending home brief reports for you to read about how your child is managing with their learning during this difficult time. I am amazed at how brilliant you have all been with getting to grips with home learning whilst still managing to do everything else that you would normally be doing, well done! Give yourselves a pat on the back and celebrate your success.

   

  We have a few events coming up, I have updated the calendar so that you can see what they all are.

   

  Next week is Safer Internet Day and Chinese New Year. Teachers will be planning activities relating to these and on Friday for Chinese New Year we would like you all to send in something related to this special celebration. You could send a photograph of yourself in costume, a painting or a piece of poetry or writing. In school we will make sure that we complete the Dragon Dance so that we chase out any bad luck and welcome in the good. You could do your own Dragon Dance at home. Perhaps we can all chase away Covid so that everyone can return to school!!!

   

  A reminder that school is closed for the half term 15th - 19th February. There will be no live online sessions that week.
