We can’t wait to welcome you all back to school!

the children back into school safely and also in an appropriate way after their long break from

education during the COVID 19 pandemic.

Some Key Information for you

September. They will use their old classroom entrances.

After school clubs begin –to be confirmed

Additional information:

• Please can your child bring a named bottle of water or flavoured water into school so they have regular access to water – this reduces the risk of sharing drinking facilities.

• A detailed Risk Assessment of how we are managing the children’s return to school has been completed and is there for you to view. This will be available on our school website.

• As always, we will continue to run an ‘open door’ approach, however, we are operating a sensible approach to this – keeping a distance when talking, spaced marking around school etc.

• Please, as you have done so far, bear with us! We have put all appropriate measures in place to ensure the safety of all – our children, their families and staff. As you already know, we do our very best to meet your needs and requests and plan to continue to do so. There may just be more of a wait at times than usual!

• Please try your very best to collect your child/ren on time at the time that is stated within this plan. This will support us as a school in maintaining safety for all during collection times. Thank you.
