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
