In Year 1 the children have a morning snack which can be a healthy snack from home or toast provided by school.Toast is starting on Monday and if you would like your child to have toast, it is 20 p a day paid for each half term, so this half term will be £7. Please hand it in to Linda in the office, in a named envelope and class too. You have to order for the half term you can’t choose daily or weekly.

Online Safety, by Mr Pearson

Date: 3rd Mar 2021 @ 4:59pm

The online world offers amazing opportunities but also brings elements of potential risk and for Parents, making sense of the online world can appear to be an enormous challenge. Unlike previous generations, the online environment is an integral part of children’s lives and therefore we can no longer consider their wellbeing or safety without also considering their relationship to technology. However, staying safe online is fundamentally about behaviours rather than the technology itself and if approached from this perspective, we can begin to gain confidence to support our children.

The link below provides some useful tips for Parents when discussing the online environment with children. In addition, this page also contains a variety of resources which can be used to develop knowledge and confidence to support children. You will also find useful information in the news and events section of the site through the link at the bottom of the page.
