May I thank you all for your patience today as we all get to grips with the technology and all the glitches we and others across the country have encountered.  Some staff have still issues waiting to be resolved by technicians in order for them to be able to add work or provide feedback.  As you can imagine there is a great demand for services and we will work around issues until they can be solved.

We are working hard to resolve these issues as quickly as possible.  Thank you

Family Support Pack for Home Learning

EAC are continuing to provide meals to Free School Meals entitled families – click here to register.

Advice has come in that all visitors to the school should be minimised and therefore we have taken the decision to postpone the following events where parents would normally be very welcome to attend:  Class Assemblies, Sharing the Learning Workshops, Parents Nights and The Easter Service.  Where possible these events will be rescheduled as soon as possible.

Report cards will be issued on Friday 20th March to give you information on your child’s learning.  

Thank you for your ongoing support.

You will have seen the children coming home with grab bags today.  These are for the future use should a pupil be unable to attend school.  We are working hard to provide support for those who are at home and in the coming days we will update you, on the current forms of communication we have on where to find activities and learning for your children.  In the bag you will find a number of resources that the children may need including their Glow User Name.  Passwords will be sent separately for security purposes.  At this point in time we are open and functioning as normal at our school.  Your continued support is very much appreciated.

Thank You

Mrs Milne
