• Where the Wild Things are

  Fri 05 Jun 2020

  A dear friend of our school Ray Wilson (a retired Headteacher and a member of the local community) is currently arranging fun activities for preschool and Early Years children as well as their parents through the local woods. Ray has worked with our school in the past and taught us all about the wildlife, environment, we have made dens and bug houses as well as planted the local blubells.

   

  This week the story focus is 'Where the Wild Things are', discovering the different wild things that live in the woods. If you are interested there is a sign pointing to Where the Wild Things are on Beechwood Avenue, we believe it is near the water fountain and off Earlsdon Avenue South. Next week will be a dog centred task featuring the Gruffalo - further information is in the Echo.

   

  Happy hunting. 

   

   

  

• Letter to parents

  Wed 03 Jun 2020

  Dear Parents/ carers

   

  As you are aware as part of the wider opening of school during this pandemic, we are operating a phased return so that all necessary protective measures are in place and the process is managed with extreme caution and care. This means that it has been necessary to take a more gradual approach than the government initially indicated.

  It is important that we respond to the unique circumstances of our school including taking into account our building, the size of our classrooms, staff availability and the increasing number of key workers within the community requiring places.

  Staff have worked relentlessly to prepare all of the necessary documentation and risk assessments as well as reorganising the learning environment to create socially distanced classrooms by removing soft furnishings, toys and furniture.

  We have enjoyed welcoming more children into school this week and have been supporting them as they have adjusted to the new environment, changes to routines, social distancing and the importance of following the new behavioural expectations.

  We are planning to receive the first groups of reception children next week but are awaiting Local Authority approval. As soon as we receive this, we will contact you with more information including a start date and times for drop off and collection at the end of the school day.

  We fully understand that not having a confirmed date for a return to school is frustrating.  We will be in touch as soon as we have confirmation and look forward to seeing you soon.

   

  Thank you for your continued patience.

   With best wishes

   Mrs R Forde
