Dear Parent(s) and Guardian(s),

An announcement was made regarding the further closure of schools to support efforts to contain the spread of Covid-19. A date for return has not yet been decided upon.This is in line with the advice of the National Public Health Emergency Team.

All pupils are urged to continue to practice social distancing, and to minimise physical contact with each other to help avoid the spread of Covid-19. This should include minimising social contact, avoiding meeting up and keeping physical space between them.Parents and guardians are urged to support their children to maintain this approach.

The Government, in conjunction with the public health authorities, will keep the situation under ongoing review.

Work for the children can be found on the ‘ Learning Packs for Covid 19’ page on this website. Please click the class and week to gain access to some suggested activities for your daughter. Our support team has also provided activities for children who receive additional support in the school. These will be uploaded each weekend.

We thank you for your patience at this time.

Le meas,

Marie Coen

Reminder about Learning Packs and Submission of Work

Dear Parents/ Guardians & Children,

Thank you for your lovely videos / photos. It is so helpful to see all the different types of activities and how they are working in your own home. We are so grateful that you have engaged with the distance learning and hope that it will enrich the time you are spending at home with your children.

Sadly, due to GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) we are unable to retain or look at any videos or photos which show your child’s face or body. This is to ensure that we adhere to all Child Protection and GDPR regulations.

Instead of a video or photo that shows your child or family, you can send:

1.     A photo of the work.

2.     A video of the work.

3.     An audio clip of the work.

We thank you for your ongoing support and look forward to planning interactive and fun lessons for your children.
Kind regards,
SML team 🙂
