School Phase reopening announcement

by

Dear Parents / Carers,

Re: possible reopening of school to more pupils in June

We know you’ve seen in the news that schools may reopen on 1 June to reception, year 1 and year 6 pupils if the government thinks it’s safe then.

We’re waiting for further guidance and clarification from the government right now, which will hopefully help us create an action plan for our phased reopening. We’ll share this with you as soon as possible so you know what the school’s reopening will look like in practice.

It’s a very unsettling time for us all, but rest assured that we’re going to be doing everything we can to make sure we’re ready to receive these year groups if it’s safe for our school to reopen in the coming weeks.

However, we’re also not going to be pressuring anyone to send their children to school, since you know your children and personal situation best. We’ll keep you updated with all our preparations for making sure the school is as safe as possible, so you can make an informed decision.

In the meantime, the school is still open only for vulnerable pupils and the children of critical workers. We know some employers will be encouraging you to return to work, but we’re not in a position right now to extend places to other children until we receive further government guidance.

We’d like to thank you for your continuous support in helping your child learn from home. We’ll need to keep going with this for a while yet, so please do continue to do what you can and stay in touch with us about how your child is doing.

If you have any questions, or want to share any information, pictures or videos, please contact the school via email on P2259.admin@durhamlearning.net or on 01207 610358

Warm regards,

Mr M Watson

Head Teacher

Year 1 Video Message

by

Below is a fantastic video created by the children and parents within Year 1 to show their friends they are out there and still smiling – please share your videos, photos, letters and work from the children so that their friends can keep in touch and know we are all still there for each other. A very special thank you to Amelia’s mum for creating and getting this to us. It really lifts all our spirits to see the children doing so well and staying so happy.

Forest School Home Learning Pack: May Day Themed

by

This Forest School pack is themed for May Day which was on Monday 1st May. May day traditions continue through the month and is recognised as a celebration for spring so we thought it would be fitting to focus on flowers for this pack. Inside the pack are ideas for you and your child(ren) during the lockdown period. We have generalised activities so that we offer all children the same regardless of age, you may find some activities are more suited to your child(ren) then others but all are worth a try!
