We are ready for a full reopening of all year groups <\/span><\/h3>\n

on Monday 8th<\/sup> March 2021<\/span><\/h3>\n

Many of you may have mixed emotions about returning to school. While we are all excited to join together again as a community, some people may feel anxious about what it will be like after a few months away from each other. Thank you to Holly (Y5) for writing about how it might feel going back to school.<\/p>\n

School Attendance<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

School attendance will be mandatory from Monday 8th March 2021. This means that it is your legal duty as a parent to send your child (if they are of compulsory school age) to school every day. If they are not going to be in school then you must inform the school office on the first day of absence.<\/p>\n

Wrap Around Care<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We hope to be able to resume Wrap Around Care when we return from the Easter holidays (Monday 19th April).<\/p>\n

Covid-19 Home School Agreement<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

We know from our experience in the Autumn Term that it is essential that the whole school community takes responsibility for keeping each other safe. This is why we are insisting that every family reads the Covid-19 Home School Agreement. Please read the agreement with your child to remind us of our expectations.<\/p>\n

What measures are in place to minimise risk to your child?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Bubbles<\/span><\/p>\n

Each Year group is a bubble. The aim of the system within the school is that, where possible, these bubbles mix only with each other from arrival at school in the morning until the children go home at the end of the school day. Each year group has their own designated space in the dining hall and on the playground to ensure that bubbles do not cross over.<\/p>\n

Staggering start and finish times\/arrangements<\/span><\/p>\n

What time does my child start school?<\/span><\/p>\n

All children can arrive at school between 8:35am \u00e2\u20ac\u201c 8:55am. Children must arrive by 08:55am at the latest. Parents must respect social distancing at the designated gate and leave promptly once your child has gone into school or has been collected from school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

 <\/p>\n

What happens if my child is late for school and their gate is closed?<\/span><\/p>\n

In order to minimise risk to the school community, children must be on time for school. If your child arrives later than 8:55am you will need to telephone the office so we can arrange for your child to be escorted safely to their classroom.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What happens if I am late to collect my child at the end of the day?<\/span><\/p>\n

In order to minimise risk to the school community, children must be collected promptly at the end of the day. If you are late to collect you will need to telephone the office to arrange to collect your child; children will not be permitted to sit in the school.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Can my child bring a bike or scooter to school?<\/span><\/p>\n

We will continue to promote walking, cycling and scooting to school and will ensure that there is somewhere for your child to safely leave their bike.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Can I enter the school site?<\/span><\/p>\n

Parents will not be permitted to enter the school site, children will be welcomed at the designated gate by a senior leader and returned to that gate at the end of the day.<\/p>\n

Should you need to pick up your child at any time during the day this must be pre-arranged by telephone with the Office Staff.<\/p>\n
