All are welcome here to walk with Jesus as we love, learn and flourish.

News w/e 2nd October

The children are continuing to settle well back into school life and are doing a wonderful job with the new regime to help stop the spread of Covid-19.

Poppy Appeal

Once again, The Royal British Legion have provided us with poppies and other items to sell in aid of the Poppy Appeal.  Please see the photo (left) for details.

The items will be on sale in school from Monday so if you would like your child to purchase one of these items then please send in the relevant amount.

This week's Certificates:

After School Clubs

As we continue to follow the advice from the DfE it has been decided that we will not currently be offering paid after school clubs from outside providers. We will be holding a club for each year group through our existing partnership
with Burnley FC and Miss Halstead will run her very popular Yoga class, details will be provided shortly.

Dinners

Dinner money is now payable for those children starting in Year 3. Please remember dinners for juniors are charged at £2.30 per
day and should, where possible, be paid in advance. Please can we also remind you that we try to be a healthy eating school and
would encourage you to refrain from putting too many sugary snacks in your child’s lunch box.

Music Lessons

We have been notified by the Music Service that no auto enrolments for music lessons have taken place this year. If your child has a music lesson and you would like this to continue or you wish to start music lessons, please contact the music service to re-enrol your child. This can no longer be undertaken by the school on your behalf.

Building Fund

If you have not already done so, please can you pay for this year’s building contribution via Parent Pay as soon as possible.

Secondary School Applications

You are now able to apply for your child’s Secondary School online (click here). Please note that the closing date is 31st of October.

Following Boris Johnson’s 8pm announcement we now know that as of midnight tonight the country has entered a new period of Lockdown, a Lockdown that includes the closure of school. 

School will be open for the children of Key Workers and for pupils who are deemed vulnerable. All pupils will be provided with work in order for them to keep learning. 

Tonight’s announcement was very short notice for you as parents and also for us as a Staff. Tomorrow, by 11am there will be three tasks on the school website for each Class to complete as their Tuesday learning. However, School will be closed to ALL pupils tomorrow. 

 

Staff, however, will be in school preparing for the rest of the Lockdown. Through tomorrow we will prepare school to make it safe for Key worker pupils and vulnerable children to return. 

We will send out a form for you to apply for a place in the Keyworker Bubbles and we will let you know more about how children will be learning remotely. We will do our very best to re-open to Key Worker children and vulnerable pupils by Wednesday. 

I am aware of how difficult this is for you all, School closing creates a multitude of problems for everyone but data surrounding this awful disease dictates that this is a necessary step. As ever, the safety and health of everyone must be a priority. 

Thank you for your continued support and we will be in frequent contact over the next few days. 

Many thanks

Claire Halstead
