Learning at home
Monday 22/06/2020
Dear Parents,
Thank you to everyone who called to the school to return books, collect reports and have a chat. It was lovely to see you all and catch up with what the boys have been doing and how you yourselves organised home learning. I know from speaking to you that it was not an easy task and some of you found it very stressful. Can I tell you that you did an amazing job. We have been so impressed with the amount and the quality of work submitted to us. Some of you also used the time to bake with your children, go fishing, teach them how to cook a meal, make birdfeeders and plant vegetables. It was a valuable time spent with your family in spite of the surreal situation in which we found ourselves.
Anyone who couldn't collect the report will receive it in the post. If you still have text books or Library books you can drop them into school Tuesday and Wednesday of this week as staff will be on the premises.
We hope to see you all in September. Our opening date is Tuesday 2nd September. We will be in touch with you in August to finalise arrangement for returning to school. We will email a book list to you in the next week or so.
Have a lovely summer. Don't forget to do lots of reading.
Thanks again to you all.
Regards,
Ms Gaffney
