Nurture Resource Pack
We are all adjusting to a new way of living and working. There have been huge changes which have taken place quickly and this can cause worry and uncertainty and leave children with lots of unanswered questions. Feelings of loss or that things ‘aren’t fair’ may also be present for some children. This Nurture Resource Pack, found here, provides activities and advice to support your child at home if they are feeling worried or anxious.
Supporting Home Learning Routines
Today, the Education Endowment Foundation published some support resources for parents around home learning daily routines. Routines are important and support in keeping a sense of normality, particularly during this challenging and unprecedented time. Here are links to a video and a checklist that you and your child may benefit from looking at. 😊💜
School Closure
Following government advice the school is currently closed. Please see OUR CLASSES for tasks each week. STAY HOME – STAY SAFE
