Children were very calm and settled around school and were, as usual, a real credit to you with their lovely behaviour and manners. It was absolutely great to hear them playing outside my office again!

Staffing is now in place for next year and I will be sending you an email about class teachers this week. As children have not completed a year with their class, and to make a return less stressful, class groups will remain the same.

Thank you to those of you who are making a marvellous effort with remote learning. Teachers love seeing children daily and know that this makes such a difference for children having routine and the pleasure of waving to friends and teachers.

Children should come to school tomorrow unless they, or someone in their house, has a new, persistent cough or a temperature. We really want to see them for as long as possible. I am very worried that, if we close, we won’t see them for a long while!

I will need to work out logistics of this announcement and will be taking advice from the Local Authority who are also trying to work out how they can ensure that children who have entitlement to free school meals can access this. I will be in touch tomorrow when I know more.

People must consider how serious this situation is and must take all actions to protect your own families and the families of others. Thank you to our parents who are with NHS. If we do not follow advice, the NHS will not cope.

Dear Parents, Having listened to the news tonight, it seems that we will be required to be partially closed from Friday. Tomorrow I will be sending a form out to ask if you are a key worker and will require childcare. School will also be open for vulnerable children.

Dear Children, Your teachers are very busy this week delivering reports and packs. We have included more workout books for you to complete. These cost quite a lot of money so please take care of them and try to complete only a few pages at a time! Thank you.

Thank you to parents who, despite being considered key workers, have been able to keep their children at home today. It is vital that, if children can be at home, they are at home. We need to take this virus very seriously.

Tonight staff have worked hard to put together packs of work for children and tomorrow you will receive a letter from me that explains how we are approaching ‘work for home’ with children. The photocopier was so hot after the copying that I suspect we may need a new one soon!!

Thank you very much for everyone who has been so prompt at responding to our survey. Currently, in a huge majority, you recognise the enormity of the task ahead and realise that, there is no way of safely returning all children by the end of the year unless the situation changes.

I have spent the afternoon hearing about facts, research and strategy re the COVID-19. I am still reassured that, whilst the majority of us are likely to get it, the vast majority will make a full recovery. The risk is to older people or people with underlying issues.
