Pope Francis - May 2020
Dear Parents and Carers
I hope you continue to keep well and are looking forward to a sunny Bank holiday weekend.
We are pleased to share the happy news that two of our staff members are expecting a baby and offer Mrs Roy and Mrs Reece-Wolsey our congratulations. They will continue to work from home during Term 6.
As you can imagine, the phased re-opening of schools provides a range of challenges. Our rationale is to enable pupils and staff to have a safe return to school. This next phase will focus on reintegration of groups listed below to school where the emphasis will be on pastoral work and a reduced core curriculum including RE. Pupils who continue to stay at home will access the same learning material via the school website.
We will endeavour to provide a phased reopening of school to vulnerable children and children of key workers, Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 from the 1st June. Parents of these year groups should not expect to return ‘as normal’ from the 1st June. Keyworker provision parents will also be contacted with the new arrangements.
The situation is changing on a daily basis and details are yet to be finalised by the school leadership team and Governing Board which meets via video link on Wednesday 27th May. We will send you final details once this process has been completed.
Pope Francis reminds us all that 'Prayer opens the door to hope' so please continue to pray with your families.
Yours sincerely
Michele Marshall, staff and Governors of St Patrick’s School
