• National Lockdown COVID19 School Closures as of the 5.1.2021

  Mon 04 Jan 2021 Mrs Brown

  Email sent to ALL parents tonight:

   

  Dear parents and carers,

  Unfortunately, after the 8.00 pm announcement from Boris Johnson, we regret to inform you that St Mary's School is closed tomorrow for ALL pupils except for key worker and vulnerable children - only if absolutely necessary.  For children staying at home tomorrow, please use the work provided on the website.  Teachers will email a timetable, via Purple Mash, detailing your child's remote learning plan by 3.30 pm tomorrow.  Remote learning will commence from Wednesday.  

  If you require a key worker/vulnerable child place for your child tomorrow, please provide proof of key worker status as per the previous lockdown.

  We do have a list of key worker and vulnerable children already.  If you are new to school or new to key worker status, please reply to this email.

  School will be open from 8.00 am if you still require breakfast club.

  Please remember that staying at home is the safest place for your child at this moment in time.  If there is somebody at home, please keep your child at home.  

  We will continue to support our school community as much as we can.

  When we have more information we will be in contact.

  Stay safe,

  Kind regards,

  Mrs Raynor
