Welcome to the world baby Cai George Rocke! Huge congratulations to Ms Bajada and family on the birth of baby Cai. Born on Wednesday 10th March 2021 and weighing in at a healthy 61b 14oz. We are thrilled to hear this exciting news. Sending Ms Bajada and her family lots of love and well wishes. (Logan, you will make the best big brother ever and Kaci the best big sister!) Can’t wait to meet him.
Return to School KS2 15th March
Welcome back Key Stage 2
We are all incredibly exited to see your Key Stage 2 Pupils return to school on 15th March. Please do not worry if your child has grown out of their uniform, the important thing if for your child to be back in school. I ask our school community to follow the guidance sent out earlier this week and take note of the entry and exit times to site. This will help us ease footfall on site and transmission too. Remember to wear a face mask on site at all times.
Parking could be an issues as work on the ‘SEASON’s’ site has begun, the carpark won’t be available for parking. If you are able to walk to school please do, if you can’t walk please park responsibly.
Have a lovely weekend, we can’t wait for Monday.
Miss Rutledge

RED NOSE & DOWN SYNDROME DAY ON FRIDAY 19TH MARCH.
On Friday 19th March we will be raising money for Red Nose day (Comic Relief) and World Down Syndrome Day. Both charities are close to our hearts. Please wear a red nose (painted red if you can’t get a nose!) and/or odd socks and bring in £1.00 for charity. Half of the money raised will go to Red Nose (Comic Relief) and half to supporting Down Syndrome.
Thank you
Lateral Flow testing
Lateral Flow Testing for staff has now been introduced, please be aware that this could impact on possible class closures at short notice. In the event of a member of staff testing positive a class bubble will need to be closed and pupils and staff will need to isolate. This will be communicated with you via text to parents in the first instance and followed up with a letter from school regarding the situation.
COVID-19 reminder
It is essential that any pupil, teacher or staff member who have COVID-19 symptoms, or who share a household with someone who has symptoms, does not attend the school / setting and follows the self-isolation guidance and access a test.
