Beecroft Primary School

Dear Parents, Carers,
I hope that you have all been enjoying the sunshine and the ‘beautiful challenge,’ video’s. The four videos are a lovely way to view all the wonderful work – which has also received very positive comments from our governors.

On 3 June we look forward to welcoming nursery children, Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 into their zones. It will be great to see everyone again and to be able to resume normal work even though we are still in not so normal times. About two thirds of our children are returning. We will continue to provide work in the home-learning zone, on the website,for the other year groups and those who have chosen not to return yet. Please collect pupils’ promptly from school between 3pm and 3.30 as we want to be able to give the school a thorough clean every evening and cleaners will want to get started.
We look forward to 3 June.
Best wishes,
J. Turner

PS Don’t forget packed lunch, PE kit and please return wearing you school uniform.

Dear Parents/ Carers,

Thank you pupils for all your beautiful ‘beautiful’ challenges. Look out for the video and if you are returning to school bring the challenges in. We look forward to seeing those who have chosen to return to school on 3 June. The following is a reminder of key information.

Return to school Wednesday 3^rd June 2020

Year 6, Year 1 Reception and Nursery

Dear Parents/Carers,

I will start by referring to government guidance:

“We know that unlike older children and adults, early years and primary age children cannot be expected to remain 2 metres apart from each other. In deciding to bring children back to early years and schools we are taking this into account.”

Dear Parents, Carers,
Thank you to all the children who have sent their ‘beautiful’ challenges – a video is in the making. Secondly, we wish Miss Stuart all the best as she starts her maternity leave this week. We look forward to hearing her future news. Miss Sayania , who you already know, was appointed as a Reception class teacher in October and has been sharing Miss Stuart’s Reception class with her. She will be class teacher from 3 June.

We recommend all parents download our new, free ParentMail App onto their smart phones. Doing this means you won’t need to search through busy inboxes for schools messages or have to remember login details. It is a great way to get weekly updates for your child!

Oxford University Press has a range of resources for home learning for 3-11 year olds, there are a range of e learning books (Project X, Read write Inc., Songbirds etc.) to read as well as audio books. Plus a range of curriculum based resources.

Dear Parents/Carers,

Our adaptations and changes have been many during the weeks of lockdown. Yesterday we eagerly awaited the news on next steps. Like you, headteachers and teachers watch the news as there is no advance information to enable forward preparations. With this in mind we will now be engaging in discussion and making plans. We will inform you as soon as we have more information.

Change4Life and Disney have teamed up again to bring you new Shake Up games inspired by Disney and Pixar’s Toy Story 4, Incredibles 2, Disney’s The Lion King and Frozen. These 10-minute bursts of fun will really get your children moving and count towards the 60 active minutes they need every day!

Dear Parents,

Another week on and I hope that you and your loved ones are well and that at least, most of the time you are enjoying your time together. Keeping a routine is probably more important than ever.
