Dear Parents and Carers,
Temperatures remain high, although they are expected to drop slightly tomorrow.
Firstly, I would like to thank the children for how well they have coped this week. Despite feeling very uncomfortable in the sustained heat, they have shown real resilience, and we are incredibly proud of them.
We recognise that some families may still feel it is safer for their child to remain at home. We fully understand and respect this decision. However, for safeguarding reasons and to support the office in managing absence, if you intend to keep your child at home on Friday 26 June, please complete the new online form for each child by 8.00am tomorrow. Please do not use the previous form.
Where children have been absent all week and have not been seen, it is likely that a safeguarding call or home visit will take place.
School remains open to all pupils all day. Flexible collection arrangements will continue to be in place, with children able to be collected from 1.15pm onwards by a registered adult.
If your child will not be attending school, please remember to cancel their school dinner before 8.00am so that the kitchen can plan accordingly.
Thank you for the continued support and understanding shown this week – it is greatly appreciated, and I will ensure this is shared with the whole staff team.
A normal school day will resume on Monday, with temperatures expected to drop over the weekend.
