Welcome to our school
Following the announcement by the Prime Minister school will re-open on 8th March 2021 to all children.
We are very much looking forward to welcoming back all of the children and we will do everything we can to support them with their return to school as we know they have been at home for such a long time.
School is currently open to nursery children, vulnerable children and children of Key Workers If your child is in one of the groups above please remember to wear your face mask when on the school premises and stay 2 metres apart from other parents/adults when bringing your child/children to school and picking them up at the end of their session.
School will continue to update all parents & carers with further developments/changes either through groupcall text, email or via this website.
Many thanks to all parents & carers who are working with us to combat this dreadful disease.
During remote learning young people will be spending more time at home than usual - with their families, and on devices. Follow the link below for a list of resources that you can use with them, to explore online safety in a fun, engaging and educational way.

Dear parents/carers
Happy World Book Day!
We hope you are joining in the celebrations and dressing up as your favourite book character.
For those children that do dress up please send in a picture! There are magazine prizes for the winner of each class. Your teacher will decide this evening from all the pictures sent in who is your class winner and tomorrow they will be announced in the news letter.
Here is a link to my WBD assembly... it's not as exciting as it would have been with all you fabulous book characters but it does have my favourite poem about stories and a sneaky peek at the prizes!!!
