Christmas jumpers

Nursery are getting in the festive spirit on Wednesday and Friday by wearing Christmas jumpers.  Please don’t go out and buy anything special.  Some parents in the past have just added some tinsel to hair bobbles for example.

Thanks for your support

Year 2 – Return to school

4th December 2020

Dear Parents/Carers of Year 2 children,

Thank you for supporting your children so well with our online learning offer. We understand that it is tricky, but are delighted with how hard the children have worked.

We are really looking forward to getting back to normality next week.

Everyone is welcome back on the 8th December. We have our fingers crossed that nothing affects this bubble again and hope the children are looking forward to the last few weeks as we build up to Christmas.

It is really important to us that you continue to keep a very careful eye on your child by way of their health. Please do not send them back to school if they are displaying any of the primary Covid 19 symptoms or the secondary symptoms as show on this poster…

Coronavirus_Getting_a_test_and_when_to_isolate_with_booking_a_test_option (1)

Tests are easy to book with results coming through very quickly now. We would rather you aired on the side of caution to avoid any further disruption across school.

If you have any questions, do ring the office who will be more than happy to help.

E-safety Top Tip – Internet connected devices

Has your child written their Christmas list yet?

I’m sure they have included a few Internet connected devices, such as:

  • smart speakers, for example Google Home and Amazon Echo
  • wearables, for example a Fitbit and an Apple Watch
  • toys with voice or image recognition, for example Hello Barbieâ„¢ and Furby Connect
  • robots, drones and other mechanical toys, controlled via an app, such as Dash and Dot.

All of these items would make great Christmas gifts and are useful to have around the home.  However, many parents don’t realise that internet connected devices have the same risks as devices like smartphones and tablets. These risks can be more likely to happen if the devices aren’t used or set up properly.

For ideas and tips about how to keep your family safe with internet connected devices, visit the NSPCC website.
