Home/ School Tasks and Information
While school is closed – we aim to put all the information you need to help your children, each week, on our class page.
A pack has been sent home to every child, with a letter explaining the resources and daily tasks to help your children. (See letter below.) If you have not received a pack, please contact the school office.
Please note – This is new to us all and we will learn together. If you find that too many tasks have been set or not enough, then please try to let me know by messaging our class page on Twitter or by emailing the school (to be forwarded to Mrs Spittlehouse).
We understand the challenges this creates for parents and understand that certain learning will not be possible.
Many thanks for all of your support.
The pack also contains a timetable for the first week. A new timetable will be uploaded here each week. See below. Please complete what is possible.
