Learning at home
Monday 25th May 2020
Dear Parents,
Here we are starting the 6th week since Easter. Time is flying by.
I want to congratulate you again on the wonderful work you are doing with your children. We are loving receiving the pictures/photographs and videos of the terrific work your children are doing and we really appreciate you sharing them with us. Please keep sending them. It is very motivational and encouraging for students, parents and staff. We really miss interacting with the pupils and love hearing all about what they are doing.
We are very aware that there will be days when it is a struggle to engage and there will be days when it may not be feasible at all. Remember we fully understand this. Please do not feel under pressure. We can all only do our best on any given day. I also want to thank the staff for their commitment. There is lots of planning/consultation/learning/sharing/collaboration and communication going on behind the scenes. This is a huge learning curve for us too! Don't hesitate to contact us if you have a question about anything or if you want to discuss anything in relation to your child.
Stay safe everyone.
