Oranges for Christingle – Please Help!

We are really struggling to get the oranges for the Christingle Service on Thursday.

Please could each child bring an orange to school with them on Monday so we can begin decorating them. We have everything else that is required to decorate the oranges in school already.

Sorry for the late request!

Menu Change – Tuesday 14th December

On Tuesday 14th December it will be Meatballs instead of the advertised Burgers.

Apologises for this change.

Rhino Homework – 10.12.21

This week, we have been learning how multiplication and division are linked together by being inverse operations.

We then looked at how our x tables can help us with our division.

To help remember the link we created some fab 4’s and fraction 2’s.

Here is an example for 5 x 6:

5 x 6 = 30

6 x 5 = 30

30 ÷ 6 = 5

30 ÷ 5 = 6

1/6 of 30 = 5

1/5 of 30 = 6

 

For homework, can you write out fab 4’s and fraction 2’s for the following x tables:

7 x 3,   8 x 4,   6 x 7,   3 x 6,   4 x 7

Save the Children – Christmas Jumper Day – Thursday 16th December

On Thursday 16th December, it is our Christmas Jumper Day!

On this day children can come to school in their favourite Christmas jumpers. They do not need to be shop-bought –  you can just grab an old jumper and cover it with stickers, tinsel, tin foil or whatever sparkly stuff you can find!

Children should wear full school uniform with their Christmas jumper replacing their school sweatshirt/cardigan.

If you would like to make a donation to Save the Children please visit the link below –

Positive Case – Rhino & Tiger Classes

We have been made aware that we have a positive case of coronavirus (COVID-19) in Tiger & Rhino Class.

We have followed the national guidance and have identified that your child has been in close contact with the affected person.  In line with the national guidance, your child does not need to self-isolate but we strongly advise that they have a PCR test as soon as possible.  They do not have to isolate when waiting on the PCR result unless they have symptoms of COVID-19. However, if you wish to keep them at home whilst waiting for results, you are welcome to do so.

If your child has any of the precautionary symptoms associated with COVID (headaches, aches & pains, feeling tired without any good reason, sore throat, runny nose, sneezing and tummy ache/sickness in children) we would strongly advise that you take them for a PCR test as soon as possible and keep them at home whilst waiting for results.

If you have any questions, please contact Rachel in the school office.  Thank you for your continued support in helping us to prevent the spread in these difficult times.

COVID-19 Guidance – Notice to ALL Parents

Please see below a table for a reminder of the current COVID-19 guidelines we are following.  Please pay particular attention to the second scenario relating to colds, headaches, sore throats and tummy aches etc.

Scenario

Next Steps

Child shows symptoms of COVID-19

  • a high temperature
  • a new, continuous cough
  • a loss or change to sense of smell or taste

Child must self-isolate for 10 days, or until a negative PCR test result has been received.

Lateral flow tests should not be used if a child has symptoms. 

Child feels unwell e.g. cold, headache, sore throat, tummy ache etc. but has no main COVID-19 symptoms.

We would strongly advise that you take your child for a PCR test and keep them at home until a negative result has been received.

Someone in the household receives a positive PCR result.

All household contacts of a confirmed positive case should undertake a PCR test, with or without symptoms, and should remain home and not come into school until a negative PCR is returned.

Rapid lateral flow tests will not suffice.

If the PCR result is negative, then pupils can return to school but we would advise that a further PCR test is taken after 4 or 5 days as a precaution.  Pupils can continue to attend school whilst waiting on the second PCR result.

Child is identified as a close contact of someone (outside of their household) who has had a positive PCR result.

We would strongly advise that you take your child for a PCR test. However, they can continue to attend school as normal whilst waiting for the results, unless they have any symptoms of COVID-19 or feel at all unwell.
