Autumn Term 2020

It is fabulous to see you all back and we are so proud of how you have returned.

The academy re-opened to all existing pupils on Wednesday 2nd September. New Reception pupils are having a transition into the academy and details can be found below relating to this.

Due to the government guidance, plans are in place to keep year groups in their "bubbles". The details for each year group start and finish times can be found listed below. Lunchtimes will be staggered and a two week rota of children accessing the dining room or eating within their class spaces, information provided below.

ANY PARENTS WHO HAVE CHILDREN IN OTHER YEAR GROUPS – TO REDUCE ISSUE AROUND LOITERING CHILDREN CAN GO AT SAME TIME AS PEERS – THIS WILL BE WITH PRIOR ARRANGEMENT. WE ASK THAT MASKS ARE WORN AND THE 2M DISTANCING MEASURE IS FOLLOWED AT DROP OFF AND PICK UP. 

LUNCHTIMES

Each week the children will be asked by their teacher whether they will be having a hot lunch or packed lunch from home. All hot lunches that parents pay for need to be paid for online. If  payment is not received a lunch will not be provided and parents will need to provide a packed lunch. As we need to make the kitchen aware of numbers, we have to pre-order the menu the week before.

Attendance is compulsory for ALL children. Sanctions will be re-established for families who fail to return their children to the academy. As always, we are following the government guidance closely and the policies and procedures that have been followed during lockdown and the learning that has taken place by all of the staff team, will ensure that risks are minimised at all times of the day.
