If you did not manage to collect your child’s resource pack today, you can do so from the school office between 9:30-12pm tomorrow (Fri 1st May).
Thank you to all parents who collected resource packs and brought back books today, we really appreciate your continued support.
This week we have been preparing more resources to support home learning in the weeks ahead. Please see the message that your child’s teacher has put on their Google Classroom page which advises what should be returned to school. We will also send a copy of these messages out via the app shortly.
When you come to the school please do not enter the glass ‘bubble’ at the main door until the person in front of you has left and we would ask you to queue towards the playground at 2 metres distance from others. We will work through classes as quickly as we can. Parents with children in various classes will be given all class packs at the one time.

Thank you all so very much for all your hard work, motivating the children to log in to Google Classrooms each day.
