Covid-19- Isolation Changes
You may have seen in the media that there have been changes to isolation periods coming into effect from today (Friday, 28th January). Anyone who has tested positive for covid-19 now have to isolate for a minimum of 5 days. They will then need to do an LFT on day 5 and 6 (24 hours apart), if both are negative, the isolation can end. If not, they will need to continue taking LFTs every day until they have had 2 consecutive negative results (24 hours apart) or until day 10, whichever comes sooner.
All the 2s Non Uniform Day
It is the 2.2.22 next week – the date is all the twos!
In order to celebrate this, we have decided to hold a non-uniform day. The children can wear non uniform in return for bringing in two coins, even better if the coins have a two on or a total number with a two in! Thank you in advance for your support.
Chromebook Purchase Scheme Update
You may recall we sent a survey out before Christmas enquiring about any parents of pupils in Years 2 – 5 who would like to sign up to our Chromebook Purchase Scheme. Unfortunately, the number of parents/ carers registering interest aren’t high enough for us to proceed with the scheme as the company we work with have a minimum number requirement. Unfortunately, this means we won’t be able to run the scheme this year but we will be looking to run it again in the Autumn term, 2022.
Winter Fuel Support Scheme
