Uniform requirements

Dear Parents/Carers,

Please can we remind you of our uniform requirements between now and the end of term. Children are permitted to come in school PE kits with a school top. We know that having some form of uniform helps children settle into work mode more easily.  We have said that Year 6 can wear Athog hoodies as an alternative. Appropriate footwear for forest school/basecamp may be needed if the weather is rainy.

We understand that at this time of the year parents do not want to be buying new uniform and so we are saying that a closely matched plain coloured top with no logos would be fine should they have grown out of the school jumper / cardigan.

Thank you for your continued support.

Update – 22.6.20

Dear Parent/Carers,

We are continuing to listen very carefully to Government advice and act accordingly in the best way we can for our children using the resources we have.

The children who have returned are really enjoying seeing their friends and teachers and of course getting back into the school routines.

 The Government told us ‘there may be capacity to welcome more children back, in group sizes of no more than 15, before the summer holidays’. This is exactly what we have done!

 We already made provision available for children of critical workers right from the very first day of lockdown. We also offered out spaces for all vulnerable children and children in the Government stated year groups – Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and Year 6.

From today we are operating the following provision –

 Year 6 – 3 classes of 15 children.

Year 5 – 3 classes of 15 children.

Year 4 – 1 class of 15 children.

Year 3 – 1 class of 15 children.

Year 2 – 1 class of 15 children.

Year 1 – 2 classes of 15 children.

Reception – 4 classes of 15 children.

Nursery – Ladybugs and Mighty Oaks operational up to a limit linked to room space.

 The allocation of classes has been dictated by critical worker request, along with demand for the specified year groups. As I have stated before, we are very lucky to have such a big school and the available staff in order to offer the best possible options we can for our children.

At this moment in time, we are full in all year groups and we cannot go over the 15 children per class base maximum, unless there is a change in the policy from Government.

If you require a place for your child/children over the final 4 weeks, we can only suggest you put your name on a waiting list by ringing the office, and then if and when policy changes we will notify you with more details.

 In the meantime, the teaching and teaching assistant teams are working very hard on making sure the ‘Home learning’ offer is of a very high standard and easy to access. Again, if you are having difficulties with access or completion do let your child’s teacher know and they will be more than happy to assist.

 I hope you are able to enjoy some of the wonderful sunshine this week; I know the children will certainly enjoy their time outside whilst at school.

Thank you for your continued support.
