PROBLEMS ON FIRST DAY
Mr Hayter, Mrs Clark, Mrs Livesey and I will all be on the playground on Monday morning. If your child is anxious and struggling to come in, find one of us and we will help. If you can't see any of us, we'll be inside with one of the other children. Just wait for a couple of minutes and one of us will be back outside.
UNIFORM
We are back to normal uniform now. A waterproof coat is a must. The children can bring in a warm fleece or extra jumper in case they get cold in class.
PE KIT
Each year group will message you via Ping to let you know when PE is.

Please contact the school office on 01273 418026, Option 1 will allow you to leave a message notifying us of your child's absence. Please speak clearly and provide the first and surname of your child, the nature of the illness, and which class they are in. If we require more information a member of our office team will call back. Please report to us each individual day of absence.

HIGHLANDS ROAD
Please remember not to drive down Highlands Road.
This video explains what is happening and why.
PARKING ELSEWHERE
Please park in a considerate manner - never across people's driveways, on grass verges, on the pavement so parents with buggies or wheelchair users can't get past. Also, never in Locksdale's car park.
LEAVING SITE QUICKLY AND NOT CONGREGATING AT THE ENTRANCES
I am asking you to continue to leave site as soon as you have dropped your children off at the start f the day or collected them. Without staggered timings there will be a lot more people on site. I know it is going to be important for you adults to be able to talk to each other and catch up as well but could you make sure that you walk a little way away from school so that the entrances and pavements near the school don't get too crowded.
