******Menu Change********

As the amount of coronavirus cases continues to increase, we need to make plans in the case of kitchen staff absence. I would re-assure you that all the staff are well at the moment and the standards of hygiene are always very high.

So that we can continue to provide hot meals for everyone, we have decided to change the menu so that we are serving the same meals at both Myddle and Baschurch, this helps the staff tremendously as I’m sure you will understand.

Next week the menu will be Week 3 and the week commencing 30 March will be Week 1 with one minor change – on Wednesday 1st April it will be roast turkey with stuffing rather than pork.

We will not be able to provide the grab and go bags but everything else will be available.

Thank you for your support

Tiger Update – 17.3.20

Dear Tiger parents / carers,

new Government guidelines is that if anyone in your household is showing symptoms of Corona virus (namely a new persistent cough or a high temperature), you MUST all self-isolate for 14 days. As a result, we are expecting even more children to miss school in the next few weeks. I have decided to share some of the home-learning links I have prepared, earlier than I expected, so families affected can start doing some work at home, if they have a chance.

I also have a home-learning folder ready for each child in our class, ready to be sent home if schools are made to close. So, if your child and the rest of your family is not showing any symptoms, please send them to school as normal and rest assured I am preparing for changes in circumstances.

If, however, your child is unable to attend to school and is well enough to do any work, I have selected 3 websites for us to use, initially:

For Reading: Teach your monster to read: https://www.teachyourmonstertoread.com/u/4791586

For Maths and English (including Spellings): Emile https://web.emile-education.com/

For Maths, Phonics and Reading: Classroom Secrets Kids https://kids.classroomsecrets.co.uk/

I have created logins for all children and will send you the relevant details via Class Dojos.

This is not an extensive list as I do not wish to overwhelm parents or children.There are thousands of free resources available for all areas of work in School. It is my job to curate the best ones for our class, so if there is anything in particular, you would like, please send me a message via Class Dojo.

I hope this is helpful.

Sports Relief Update

We have had a busy week so far. The Children have taken part in Relay races, Basket Ball and Archery during their break and lunchtimes. We have also had children running their miles towards the Shropshire Half Marathon.

Just a reminder that on Friday 13th, your child is invited to dress in any sports gear for a contribution of £1 each. The Children’s Sports Council are running the Sports Relief competition “What’s behind the locker door”, which costs £2.00 a guess. If you would like your child to have a go please send them in with the correct money.
