Welcome to Term 3
What a strange Term 3 this is! The most important thing I want you to know is that the staff of Abbots Cross Primary are here to help and support not only our school families but everyone in the community in any way we can. If things are difficult for you and you think we could help, please contact us on 02890864171. This phone number will be active to take your calls every day.
School is currently open when required for a small number of our own pupils and pupils from other schools who need to join us here. We are very careful to keep everyone as safe as possible with frequent handwashing, detailed cleaning of our building and equipment and keeping our distance as much as possible. We follow a timetable of useful, educational activities mixed with playtime and of course, snacks and lunch.
A big thank you to you all for the work you are putting into Home Learning. Teachers are currently phoning a number of parents to check in with you and to ask if there is anything else we can do to help. Please answer this call which may come from a withheld number.
We are constantly developing our Home Learning in an effort to make it as effective as possible. It's a new situation for us all. Just do your best and remember that your child's happiness and sense of wellbeing are the best foundation for learning. So if things don't go to plan and the Learning falls apart today, don't panic. Just take a deep breathe and try again tomorrow.
Stay safe and well and we will all get through this together.
