  Dear Family

  School will be closed to pupils from Friday 20^th March until further notice.  To minimise the impact on children’s learning we will be setting work for children to do during this time of closure.

   

  For pupils in Years 1 to 6:

  • Comprehension booklets will be sent home;
  • Online MyMaths tasks will be set;
  • Timestables practice on ‘Timestables Rockstars’.

   

  For pupils in reception:

  • A blank exercise book will be sent home which includes tasks set by the class teacher.

   

  On the back of this letter are your child’s usernames and passwords for any relevant online applications that they use and additional suggested activities to do at home.

   

  Work for the week will also be uploaded to the school website every Monday, starting March 23^rd.  Please visit the children’s tab and then your child’s class page.

   

  If your child is already absent from school, please make arrangements to collect the learning pack from the main office.  The office will be open today and on Friday until 1.30pm.  If you are unable to leave the house, please let us know and we will deliver resources to your home if you are a Haringey resident on Friday afternoon. 

   

  Families with pupils who are in receipt of free schools meals will be contacted and advised of contingency arrangements in due course.

   

  If you are a key worker please contact the school.

   

  If you have any safeguarding concerns and want advice, please contact Haringey Social Services using their online self-service tool on their website: haringey.gov.uk 

   

  If you need to contact the school during this time of closure, please use our email address at the top of this letter or on the school website.  All communication from school will be through the website, email and text.

   

  Please monitor the school website and emails for further updates.  Thank you for your continued support, please take care of one another and keep well during this unsettling time.

   

  Yours sincerely

• Coronavirus - latest information

  Fri 13 Mar 2020

  The government is closely monitoring the spread of the virus and is updating schools daily.

   

  As of 17th March 2020, Public Health England has UPDATED their advice and now state, 'Where any person in the household of a staff member or pupil is unwell with fever and cough, the whole household needs to self-isolate for 14 days. 

   

  How to avoid catching or spreading coronavirus?

  Do

  • wash your hands with soap and water often – do this for at least 30 seconds
  • always wash your hands when you get home or into work
  • use hand sanitiser gel if soap and water are not available
  • cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your sleeve (not your hands) when you cough or sneeze
  • put used tissues in the bin straight away and wash your hands afterwards
  • try to avoid close contact with people who are unwell

  Don't

  • touch your eyes, nose or mouth if your hands are not clean

   

  We ask that you inform the school if your family or children travel abroad at any time and also if you have any overseas visitors staying with you. If you do travel overseas please contact the school BEFORE you bring your child back to school.

   

  We are doing everything we can at school to prevent the spread of any virus.

  In the mean-time we ask that you send your children to school and keep the school informed of any travel or illness.
