  • SEPTEMBER 2020 RETURN TO SCHOOL- SECOND REMINDER

    Sun 23 Aug 2020

    Dear Parent/Guardian

     

    We have this weekend, received a number of queries as to when our children return to school.

     

    An e-mail was sent to all parents who have registered an e-mail address with us on the 16th July enclosing a copy of our end of term Newsletter which contains details of all pupils return to school in September for the new Academic Year.  In addition, we also posted a copy of this letter under  the "News & Events" category on the 15th July which can be accessed by clicking on the "Newsletters" tab.  This newsletter contains details of the new arrangements for the collection and drop of children to the school, the new one way system, class arrangements etc.  

     

    Although the school will re-open on Tuesday 1st September, we will be closed to pupils on Tuesday 1st and Wednesday 2nd September as we need to put in place the final arrangements for the pupils safe return.  The return to school arrangements for pupils are as follows:-

     

    THURSDAY 3RD SEPTEMBER

    Reception to Year 6 pupils ONLY (NOT NURSERY PUPILS)

     

    MONDAY 14th SEPTEMBER

    Existing Nursery Pupils 

     

    MONDAY 21ST SEPTEMBER ONWARDS

    New Nursery Admission pupils.  The Parents of these children who are new to our Nursery Class will be contacted on our first week back with the times and arrangements for their child's admission to the school.  Those parents have already been contacted by Mrs Kent and start dates etc given to them.

     

    Parents will not be allowed to stay on site as we aim to minimise contact between individuals and maintain social distancing wherever possible.  In addition, please ensure that your child attends school with their books, P.E. kit, lunchbox etc as no visitors will be allowed entry to the school. No visitors will be admitted to the school without a prior appointment being made via the school office.  The reason for this is to not only protect our children from COVID-19 but also to protect our staff and our pupils families.  

     

    Kind regards
