St Georges Community Rock Snake

Rock Snake!

Good afternoon everyone! 😊

Several groups within the St Georges community have decided to come together to make our own rock snake. You may have seen ‘Percy’ the rock snake which is based in Priorslee. It is fantastic and has hundreds of painted rocks. We would love for you all to get involved in our own snake!

A fantastic artist, Sarah Jayne, has painted the head for our snake and it has already been placed at the main entrance to Little Dragons. This will then lead down towards the ‘Flash’.

Please join in and add your own colourful rocks and let’s see how long it grows. We can’t wait to see your creations!

Update for all parents 23.6.20

23.6.20

Dear Parents,

I hope you are all keeping safe and well.

You may have seen that it has been announced that the Government are planning for all pupils, in all year groups, to return to school in September. We have not been given any more details other than that yet and we are awaiting further guidance as to what this might actually look like. As always, I will write to you as soon as we know more.

We know that some children may be a little bit anxious about who their teacher is going to be in September. That is totally understandable, especially considering some children have been out of school for so long. We are currently finalising classes and staffing for September and will let you know who your child’s teacher is when we send out their end of year reports, via email, in the next couple of weeks. As I’m sure you can imagine, this has all been much harder to do this year with everything else going on!

As a staff, we really are looking forward to school being back to ‘normal’ as I’m sure you are too.

Kind regards,

Mrs Sally Sixsmith

Head Teacher

New Art Gallery

Thank you and well done to staff and children who have worked so hard to get our new Art Gallery up and running. The idea will be to change the pictures every now and then so we can celebrate lots of children’s masterpieces over time.

We can’t wait for everyone to return to school so you can all come and have a look.

End of term dates

Dear Parents,

I do hope you are all well and keeping safe.

I am writing again to continue to keep you informed. The school year will finish for all children on Wednesday 15th July, including for the children of key workers.

We plan to open school on Thursday 16th July and invite Y6 children only in to do something special for them, as they will be starting at various secondary schools in September. This will of course be subject to social distancing and will involve the Y6s being in small groups, as we have been doing with the pods. Further details will be sent out to Y6 families but we do wish to stress that this could change should new guidance come in for schools before then.

Clearly, these dates are all open to change as we are still awaiting news about what will be expected of schools in September. We also have not been told if school buildings will be used over the summer holidays.

As always, I will update you when I know more. Thank you once again for your continuing patience.

Mrs Sixsmith
