Dear Parents, Carers, and children,
Welcome back to a new academic year, a fresh beginning for everyone. We are so looking forward to seeing everybody on Monday morning. I hope that you have had a great summer holidays and I’m sure that the children are ready for the exciting new learning and challenges that we have planned for them.
Organisation of School day for September
The systems we have in place have been successful in keeping everyone safe. In September, as we transition into a new norm, we will continue with a staggered approach to the start and end of the school day. As we are finishing building work in the front side yard there will be a few changes for the next few weeks.

Belated congratulations to Pat on celebrating a big birthday during the Summer holidays.
Lunchtime Routines
We hope to return to using the dining hall for lunch. Initially with Reception, then adding other Year groups as the month progresses. Reception children will stay for lunch from day one. School hot dinners are available, or if they prefer, children can bring a lunchbox. Please remember to write your child’s name clearly on the lunchbox to avoid confusion and tears. As a Healthy School, wherever possible, could we encourage healthy choices.
Water Bottle- clearly labelled
Hydration is vital to good learning and wellbeing. Please send your child daily, a clearly labelled bottle filled with water.
