March 2021- Year Group Bubble Closures Nursery, Reception & Year 2
Unfortunately we have had to close the Nursery, Reception & Year 2 bubbles due to confirmed cases of COVID19.
We have had to close three year groups in the school, however all the cases we currently have come from 1 family.
Self isolation period: 20/03/21 - 29/03/21. This means pupils will return on Tuesday 30/03/2021.
Isolation Work
Work for your child to do during the 10 day isolation period will be put onto Purple Mash later today. The same system used for accessing work during the lockdown will be used again. If you do not have a device to access this work, please contact the school and we can arrange for an iPad to be loaned to you.
If you have children in other years groups, they can still attend school, however please do not bring isolating pupils onto school grounds.
FSM
If your child is entitled to benefit related free school meals we will be sending a Tesco voucher to cover the isolation period.
