It is our expectation that the children attending the morning session will be taking up the offer of a hot school lunch. The afternoon sessions will not be staying for lunch.
Picnic Lunch Thursday 9th September – The children and staff will have a ‘picnic’ style lunch together. This will be provided by our catering team. We will send details closer to the time about parental attendance dependent on the restrictions that are in place at that time.
We are looking forward to seeing all children attending full time school from Friday 10th September.
For those children who need more time to settle into the routine, this will be decided on a one-to-one basis in consultation with parents/carers.
Yours faithfully
