Happy Friday all,
I hope you have all had a good week. It has been a lovely week here at school with the start of the end of year celebrations well under way.
I am hoping you have all received a carnival letter from the PTA -either in your child's book bag or by email for our new starters. The carnival is on the 18th September and as a school we love to take part. If you are able to come along it really is a lovely event and we like to go all out to take part in the parade. If you return your slips we will then allocate block colours for the children to wear -we're making a rainbow amongst other things.
Do check out your child's new class page for the meet the teacher videos. We will be having one in school in September, restrictions permitting.
Every year the school is required to take 5 INSET days for staff continuing professional development.
The INSET days for next year have been set as:
Wednesday 1st September
Monday 1st November
Monday 28th February
Friday 27th May
Friday 8th July
There is also an extra day allocated for the Jubilee on Monday 6th June when school will be closed.
These can also be found on the calendar.
I have posted a link below which is about supporting your child when working from home. Although I am hoping that this will be redundant now ( it has only just been published) it has some useful ideas about creating a space, adjusting fonts and screen colours and best positioning to support posture. I thought it might be useful regardless of lockdowns.
As we head in to our final week we are continuing to follow previous guidance and are really hopeful that we will all head into the summer holidays without any more lock downs. Thank you for your support with this.
Have a lovely weekend
