Under normal circumstances, we would have been breaking up today for the Easter holidays - but these are not normal circumstances.
As you know, school has been partially open to provide childcare only to the children of key workers over the last couple of weeks. This will continue during the Easter holidays on the days we are needed, to continue this care.
So, during the next two weeks, the school building and office will be CLOSED on Good Friday and Easter Monday.
In emergency circumstances - during these times - a member of staff can be contacted on our mobile number: 07707510266.
I'm sure you will join me in showing appreciation for all the staff at Seaburn Dene and their efforts over the last few weeks to share engaging teaching and learning ideas with you on Class Dojo, as well as being on hand in school - when called on.
A very big thank you to YOU at home, for taking on the challenge of balancing the roles of parent, teacher and, in many cases, working from home - credit to you. You are all doing a fantastic job, under what are incredibly difficult and challenging circumstances.
The Friends' of SDPS traditional egg decoration competition can now be accessed at home and you can send a photograph of your entries to easteregg@seaburndeneprimary.co.uk.
Remember to include your name and your class, along with the photograph of your decorated egg in
the email. Please email any entries before 3pm on Friday, 17th April.
Our teachers are going to take a break over the next fortnight (apart from the volunteers providing childcare in school) and we would like the children to do the same, in order to enjoy the Easter holidays as best we can.
There will be a science challenge for ALL children running across Easter and - of course - keep encouraging the children in their reading.
We will resume our Class Dojo posts and messaging from Monday, 20th April.
Take care, stay safe and have a lovely Easter.
Mr Howe.
