Dear Parents,

I hope you are all well.  For me, this has been one of the busiest weeks of the term.  I have had Teams meetings with our School Improvement Officer, our Diocesan Advisor, governors and prospective parents.  Whilst all these meetings support the school in moving forward, they have also been a celebration of what we have achieved this term.

On Monday we hope to upload the Carol Service.  All of the Christmas learning and fun has been wonderful to see.  Today I had the pleasure of Christmas lunch, film and Christmas disco with Rosefinch on top of all our learning.  Although we couldn't share the experience as a school, it was certainly enjoyed by all.

I emailed a letter out to parents yesterday regarding the end of term next Friday and the associated procedures in the event of a positive Covid test within our school community.  The information I receive each day shows an increase in the cases locally, with many schools each day being impacted.  Please continue to consider the safety of our staff, pupils and families in all you do.  We are so close to Christmas and I wish everyone time with their families over the Christmas holiday.

I wish you a lovely weekend, take care

Jacquie Vanstone
