team, to ensure that all pupils are able to continue
to receive an excellent education. I feel this is a
testament to the hard work of our wonderful staff
team, our fantastic parents and carers, and, of
course, our resilient and hard-working scholars.
Looking ahead to Term 4, we are hopeful that we
will be able to welcome our pupils back into school,
although we still have no further details from the
government at this time. Please be assured that
we will do everything we can to ensure a smooth
transition as soon as we are able to. You will have
received an email, asking you to complete a form
to give your consent for your child to receive two
lateral flow tests, one in the week preceding and
one during the first week of a return to school.
This is not compulsory, however the process will
help us to ensure the school remains as safe as
possible as more pupils return. Please contact
our admin office should you have any questions
about this.
The final touches are now being made to our new
building and we are very much on schedule to
move into our new home at Easter. We are very
excited that we will finally be able to offer our
school community the wonderful facilities they
deserve.
With best wishes for a safe and happy half term,
Kristina Yates
Principal
