Glow Activity Update

 

Dear Parents, Carers and Students

I hope you are all keeping well and staying safe at this difficult time.

As we move into the new term we intend to provide a range of activity for our Step Unit Students in order to give the opportunity to maintain Language and Maths Skills and to give the opportunity to try some fun and interesting activities on a daily basis.

It is also an opportunity to keep in touch with their favourite teachers and to keep up contact!

This will be achieved using Glow Classrooms and Microsoft Teams.

All students have a glow login and password. Please encourage our students to log on and check in with the activities, they might even enjoy them, and will also be able to interact with classmates and friends.

We will continue to stay in touch on a regular basis and we can solve any issues as they arise as we adapt to new ways of keeping in touch and supporting each other.

We will also post a timetable of activity on social media outlets.

 

Keep healthy and stay safe.

 

With all best wishes.

 

Mr Coyle
