Update from Mrs Todd

5th March 2021Denise Todd

We can’t wait to have all of the children back at school on Monday and we bet you can’t either!

Please see the post dated 1st March for full details of our reopening to all pupils, but here are the times as follows-

Start/Finish Times – the same as before this lockdown

Y5/6 – 8:40am / 3:10pm

Y3/4 – 8:50am / 3:15pm

Year 2 – 8:50am/3:15pm

Year 1 – 9:00am/3:30pm

Rec – 9:10am / 3:25pm

Nursery – 8:30/11:30 12:30/3:30pm

We would request that all adults wear masks, whilst following our one way system for dropping off/collecting children and that only one adult attends to collect the child/children.

We know that some children may be anxious about their return to school, we have lots of activities planned to support this in school, but this document attached, also has some good advice.

See you Monday!

Mrs Todd

School Reopening to All Pupils – Monday 8th March

1st March 2021Denise Todd

Please read the information below, in preparation for the return of all pupils to school on Monday 8th March.

General Information

Everyone will still be required to follow the one-way route from the Ashley Road entrance, through the junior yard and onto the infant yard, before exiting via the gate on Temple Park Road. There will be staff outside to keep you right, so please don’t worry – you cannot possibly get lost! Nursery parents should use the gate leading to Nursery and then exit via Temple Park Road.

Start/Finish Times – the same as before this lockdown

Y5/6 – 8:40am / 3:10pm

Y3/4 – 8:50am / 3:15pm

Year 2 – 8:50am/3:15pm

Year 1 – 9:00am/3:30pm

Rec – 9:10am / 3:25pm

Nursery – 8:30/11:30 12:30/3:30pm

If you have more than one child, your older children should come to school when you drop off the youngest one. They should go into school through their own access door. The older children will also come out when the younger children finish. Please collect them on your way to collect the youngest, while following our one-way system. Please try to arrive at the time stated. We cannot have people waiting on the yard for any length of time and once children are collected, you should leave the premises immediately. Please do NOT hang around to speak to other parents.

As it is difficult to maintain social distancing at start/finish times, we would request that adults wear masks on the school premises.

Lunchtime

Break times and lunchtimes will also be staggered, so children remain in their year group bubble.

Children in Rec/Y1/Y2 will receive a hot dinner on Mon/Weds/Fri and receive a packed lunch on Tues/Thurs. Children in Years 3-6 will have the option to have a hot dinner on Tues/Thurs.

Equipment

Until further notice, children should only bring a coat, water bottle (ones with narrow mouthpiece rather than screw top are preferred the prevent spillages) and packed lunch, if required. Any work/books will be sent to and from home in a plastic wallet provided by the school.

If you have any further questions regarding this information, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you to everyone for your continued support in trying to create a system that can keep us all as safe as possible. This is very much appreciated at this challenging time. If this helps us to resume ‘normality’ as soon as is possible, then let’s stick to the rules.

We look forward to seeing you all on Monday 8th March!

Update from Mrs Todd

26th February 2021Denise Todd

I hope this finds you all well and staying safe, as well as enjoying a bit of long awaited sunshine today!

Thank you to everyone, who has worked so hard with their children at home, making sure that the children have engaged with the staff and that work has been regularly uploaded or completed for marking. We know that this is not easy, but we have been overwhelmed at your efforts to work with both your children and the staff. There are still several work packs in the office to collect, we would be grateful if these could be collected as soon as possible, to ensure the children’s work is up to date, ready for their return on 8th March. Please also remember that you should be in contact with your child’s class teacher on a regular basis, to update them on your child’s home learning.

We would like to say huge well done to Macey Brocklesby (Y6), who has won the Primary section of the Express Yourself Competition, run within South Tyneside. The competition was held as part of a Mental Health Awareness campaign.

 

We will be posting information regarding your child’s return to school on 8th March, early next week, so please keep checking the website.

Take care,

Mrs Todd

Update from Mrs Todd

23rd February 2021Denise Todd

Following the announcement last night, our school will reopen to all pupils on Monday 8th March. It is very likely that we will continue with our staggered start/finish times, as well as staggered breaks and lunchtimes, which we operated in the Autumn Term, in order to keep transmission levels as low as possible. I will post further information about this after 1st March.

Until then, take care and stay safe.

South Tyneside Council & South Tyneside CCG are pleased to announce a new range of training for parents and carers of children and young people with SEND.

Based on what parents have told us, we have pulled together a training programme covering a range of topics including SEND Law, Makaton, Challenging Behaviour and much more. The training programme will run for the next 12 months with lots of opportunities for parents to choose the training that’s of most interest to them. All courses are free to join.

We are now taking bookings for the first event: a series of training on SEND Law. These sessions will be delivered by Claire Jackson of SENETA (Special Educational Needs Expert Training & Advocacy). Click the link below to find out more about the sessions and book your space.

Update from Mrs Todd

12th February 2021Denise Todd

I do hope this post finds you all well and that you have had fun at some point out in the snow this week. Pulling your child around on a sledge appears to be a fantastic way to keep fit!

Next week is half term, so the staff will not set work for the children again until Monday 22nd February. Thank you to everyone, who has worked so hard with their children at home, making sure that the children have engaged with the staff and that work has been regularly uploaded or completed for marking. We know that this is not easy, but we have been overwhelmed at your efforts to work with both your children and the staff. I have seen some fantastic examples of the children’s work, this has been a pleasure to read.

The children in school have also been working hard, following the same work as everyone at home. They have also produced some lovely work and Mr Bell’s Year 3 bubble even made sure I received an ‘Italian Ice Cream Sundae’ – linked to their international studies.

If your child has been in school this week and displays symptoms of COVID or has a test, then please contact me via email at [email protected] as soon as possible.

Hopefully, you can be creative and find some fun things to do over the half term break, whilst staying safe and sticking to the rules.

Take care,

Mrs Todd

Staying Safe Online

8th February 2021Natalie Jewitt

We have had a number of parents contact us over the last few weeks, seeking advice around their child’s use of the internet and various platforms. As always we have lots of really useful information on our website:

One such case has involved grooming through an App, which was highlighted by a Youtuber, encouraging children to download the App to gain extra credits and hacks for games. The parent of the child is keen to warn other parents of such dangers and how easily this can happen.  It is a good point at which we should remind parents that YouTube is meant for children of 13 years and over – our children should really only be watching YouTube through the You Tube Kids App or with an adult supervising.

This happened when the child had been watching a YouTube video and was excited to learn from the performer that she might be able to get extra credits and find out hacks for games she plays. The conversation slowly turns into a grooming scenario and once the child’s parent realised what was happening, reported it to CEOP and the police.

Please do think carefully before allowing your child unsupervised access to a device which has no parental controls set.  The following information should give you some ideas as to how you can protect your child.

As always – if you have any concerns regarding internet safety please do not hesitate to contact a member of staff.
