Dear Parents and Carers,

Good afternoon,

Just to make you all aware we have updated new learning packs to the website in the NEW Home /Schooling learning tab. There is also a new section with online interactive lesson links.

Other new links will be added during the week so please keep an eye out.

It is not compulsory to follow these but guidance of ideas of activities to complete with children to fill the days and to support their continued learning.

Our new facebook page is up and running and you will have received the link through parent mail. It's been lovely to see your stories and the children's smiling faces.

All the staff are missing the children and send their best wishes to all of you.

We hope it will not be too long before we are all back at school together.

Kind regards

Caroline Ash

Community Spirit: To be a welcoming and inclusive school. To create rounded children for the future who see the benefits of collaboration and teamwork in the pursuit of happiness and success.
