31.7.20 - letter to parents from Ms Hardwick

31 July 2020 (by admin)

Dear parents,

I hope each and every one of you is keeping safe and well. We are really excited about welcoming your children back into school. It will be lovely to have our school community reunited again.

A few parents have written to the school information account with queries. One or two of these queries affect all parents in relation to schoolbags and PE ie

Schoolbags and lunch boxes:
Your child can bring a clean schoolbag and lunch box to school.

PE and PE kits:
There will be no PE initially. This will be kept under review and parents will be kept informed when this situation changes.

Communication:
If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact the school information account. This is checked frequently and responses are sent to your queries. Facebook is not the forum to raise queries. We use Facebook and the school website to give information to parents and to celebrate our fantastic pupils. However, your communication with us in terms of raising concerns or asking questions should be through the school information account (or by telephone when school is open).

It is also the responsibility of parents to check the website regularly for updated information.

Mental Health:
We aim to keep each and every child feeling safe, secure and happy in our school environment. I have promoted the development of a Fairy/Sensory garden in recent weeks. I would like to thank all parents, children and staff who have contributed to this special place. The idea is that teachers can take the children out to the front of the school to enjoy an imaginative and calming experience during the school day. I think this will be especially important following what has been a stressful time for young children. If you have any little fairies, fairy houses, fairy doors etc at home, we would be very grateful to receive these.

I will stay in close touch with you and keep you updated in what is an everchanging situation.

Take care

Andrea Hardwick
