We were delighted to welcome your children back to school today at slightly different times - thanks for your patience. We have received emails from some of you asking about Covid measures and what you can do to help. I thought it best to respond to everyone at the same time with this letter.
We are aware that the Omicron Covid variant is highly transmissible and rates are climbing locally and nationally.
Currently we have six children and two staff members, absent as a result of Covid, however, we expect to run the school as normally as possible with some of the following measures in place.
If a member of your household tests positive, please test everyone in your house even if they have no symptoms. Please only send children into school if they have a negative test result if others in your house have Covid. The school office team will be happy to discuss this with you, if you are not sure.
Please be ready to come and collect your child quickly if they become sick and ensure we have all the relevant contact details for yourself and any one you have nominated on your collection lists.
If you travelled abroad over the holidays, please let the office know on your return and follow any isolation advice.
We are expecting this half term to be particularly challenging and we appreciate your ongoing support to keep our community safe, well and the children learning in school.
Class Dojo and the school emails are available if you have any further concerns or questions about the new term.
Yours sincerely,
John Howe
Head Teacher
