Dear Parent/Guardian,  I hope that you are all well and that you have been able to enjoy some additional contact with family and friends under the government’s current phase of the lifting of lockdown. I’m sure that this has been an emotional time for many of you, who have been able to visit much loved grandparents and relatives once again.  This social distancing has been very difficult for us […]

Dear Parents/Guardians,    Thank you all for your amazing on-going response to our online activities and for the wonderful photos and videos you are sending in to us. It brings a smile to my face to see all the girls, trying out recipes, painting, doing fitness activities, doing project work, practising writing, sums, writing lovely poems and so much more. I’ve learned facts about the earth, about the orchestra and even brushed up on a little […]

Dear Parents/Guardians,                                                              I hope that this last week has been kind to you and that you are managing to remain in good spirits. As I write to you, I am conscious that each family’s experience of Covid-19 is very different, given their own unique circumstances.

As adults, we are finding it difficult to adapt and adjust to this new, curtailed way of living. However, it is even harder for young children, who may be very confused and worried at this time. It is up to us, to reassure them […]

However, I know that in […]
