We have made it to half term and we all deserve a moment to stop.
I hope this week, all of our parents and all of our children have time to stop and not think about work or home schooling. I hope everyone finds some space this week to do something they enjoy, whether this be with someone else or whether this be on their own. Whether it be for just an hour or a whole day. Please make sure you do all stop.
Thank you all for your ongoing hard work during the last six weeks. We have no confirmation yet as to what may happen next half term; we will need to wait for the Government announcement on 22nd February. Let’s see what they say then. My hope is that they will start to reopen schools from the 8th March; we all need it, especially our children.
I want to say a big thank you to the PTA, so well led by Jane Trollope, who have continued to support the school and me during this half term. They are an incredible group of parents, totally committed to doing all they can to support our children in any way they can. The money they have raised for new iPads is ensuring the children in school are able to access the remote learning (especially in KS1) and we have been providing tech to those that require it.
I would like to say a HUGE thank you to all my staff. They have worked tirelessly in school teaching face to face and striving to provide quality remote learning. The amount of progress they have made in this area over these past few weeks has been phenomenal and I am immensely proud of my team.
Have a well-earned rest, the days are drawing out………..surely spring is just around the corner?
Something that made me smile:
As I walked through the school last week, I saw that the children in FSU were watching my assembly. I decided to pop in and see them. The look of complete surprise and astonishment was wonderful to see and then, one Little Acorn stood up and walked over to me and hugged my leg: “You are the real Mrs Pipe, she (pointing to my image on the screen), she is…………… the pretend one!” I couldn’t help but laugh and agree.
I was also made aware of a comment on Google Classroom where a note had been made that they had watched Miss Pips assembly. Between the pretend me, the real me, and Miss Pips I think I have everything covered 😊
Half a good half term.
