What will school look like when you return?
We have put together a video showing the procedures that will be in place when students start returning to school, both inside and outside of the school building.
Please share this with your child to prepare them for how school now looks and the new rules that will be in place.
Thank you!
Kind regards,
Mrs Roberts
It was a very windy day when it was recorded so please turn up the volume to high.
