Updated COVID Guidance – Sept 2021

We would like to update you on the current guidelines we are following regarding Covid-19 and illness –
If your child is displaying any COVID symptoms (a high temperature, a new continuous cough or loss of sense of smell/taste) they must self-isolate for 10 days, or until a negative PCR test result has been received.

PLEASE DO NOT BRING YOUR CHILD TO SCHOOL UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES.

Any other household members or close contacts will not be required to self-isolate if any of the following apply:

  • they are fully vaccinated – fully vaccinated means that you have been vaccinated with an MHRA approved COVID-19 vaccine in the UK, and at least 14 days have passed since you received the recommended doses of that vaccine.
  • they are below the age of 18 years 6 months
  • they have taken part in or are currently part of an approved COVID-19 vaccine trial
  • they are not able to get vaccinated for medical reasons

In a nutshell, primary and secondary school children do not need to isolate if they have contact or live with a positive case, unless they develop symptoms or test positive themselves.

However under these circumstances, even if your child does not have symptoms, we would strongly advise that you take them for a PCR test. They do not have to isolate when waiting for the PCR result unless they have symptoms.

You can book a PCR test by calling 119 or by visiting www.gov.uk/get-coronavirus-test

Rapid lateral flow tests should not be used on children if they have symptoms, as these are only to be used when no symptoms are present. You must either book a PCR test or contact school for a home testing kit.

If your child is not displaying any of the above symptoms and is well enough to cope with a full day of school, they can come in.  If your child feels at all unwell before coming to school, please do not send them in. Usually we encourage children to ‘see how it goes’ but in the current circumstances we cannot allow this.

If you have any questions, please contact the school office.

Thank you for your support.

We link our topic with Reception Class, so this term we will be focusing on ‘People who help us’
We have lots of fun activities planned and we cannot wait to share our pictures and creations with you all. We may need your help with a few of these activities so please keep your eye on Dojo for updates. An overview of the week ahead will also be added to Dojo so you can see what your child will be getting up too.

Please ensure your child is wearing suitable clothing and footwear on Wednesdays and Fridays.

Reminders
Could you please ensure your child comes to nursery with:
1. Spare clothes – We do often get messy!

3. A water bottle

Rhino Homework – 10.9.21

This week, homework is to complete a place value activity (sheet is stuck in homework book) which reflects some of the work we have been covering this week. The activity should take no more than 10 minutes. Please ensure homework is completed and sent back into school Wednesday please.

Have a great weekend.

Frog Club

We have now introduced our class maths programme called Frog Club in Rhino class.  This is an initiative that encourages children to have faster recall of number facts. The programme starts with the 10 club and goes through to 99 club and then onto Superstars Division and Superstars Fractions.

By learning these number facts, we really hope that this programme will help your child carry out calculations more easily as they learn to use and apply their knowledge.

Each week, on a Friday, the children will have 5 minutes to complete the test for the club they have been assigned. In order to move on to the next club, they must answer all questions correctly in the time.

Below is a list of all the clubs and the content covered in each.

You can help your child at home by practising fast recall of the number facts in each club.  Click on the link to access each test.

Tiger Class Autumn Term Letter

Curriculum letter – Tiger Class – Autumn 2021

We have also sent home a copy of our termly Class letter (see link).
