Thanks to the hard work of both the children and staff lead by Mrs Bowe I am please to announce that we have been re-awarded both Bronze and Silver Badge in the Green Trees award.

School Closed Monday 4th January

3rd January 2021 By markwatson

Dear Parent / Carer
In light of recent announcements from various unions, a review of our current risk assessments and a review of staffing levels the Chair of Governors has made the difficult decision to fully close the school tomorrow Monday 4th, to ALL pupils and families (including keyworker and vulnerable children), in order to prepare to move the school to remote learning and reopen for keyworker children and vulnerable pupils. A text message will be sent to all families later today to assess the levels of need for these groups and I ask that youbear with us over Monday as we now undertake the task of collating all this information and planning a way to return as many children as possible into school given staff levels and health and safety requirements. If you qualify for a key worker place please can you let us know if you wish to utilise this place by responding to the text as soon as possible – please note we may need to limited places to families with 2 keyworkers and single parent households first.
This means the school will now reopen on Tuesday 5th to confirmed Key worker and vulnerable children only.
In addition, staff will be delivering remote learning packs to all children on Monday to use alongside Class Dojo, with sufficient work to last beyond the potential 2 weeks.
I understand that you may have many questions and I will be happy to answer these tomorrow. I apologise for the short notice in terms of tomorrow but I am sure you will appreciate this is a rapidly evolving situation over which I have little control. Can I thank you for all the kind messages received across the day. Your continued support is much appreciated.

Council launches free school meals scheme for half-term

28th October 2020 By markwatson

As children across County Durham begin their half-term holiday, a new voucher scheme has been launched to support families who rely on free school meals.

Durham County Council announced it would step in to provide this vital support last week following the House of Commons vote against extending the national school meals scheme to cover school holiday periods.

From today (Monday), parents and carers whose children are eligible for means-tested free school meals will be able to apply for one £15 voucher per child on council’s website at www.durham.gov.uk/freeschoolmeals. After filling in a form, they will then be sent a QR code, which can be redeemed at any PayPoint or Post Office and used to buy food and drink supplies. Residents can find their nearest PayPoint at www.paypoint.com/en-gb/consumers/store-locator or Post Office branch at www.postoffice.co.uk/branch-finder.

Anyone who struggles to access the internet or does not have a device that would support the digital code can call the local authority’s County Durham Together community hub on 03000 260 260. Staff will be on hand from 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday, to help people with the forms or talk through other options.

The scheme will run throughout this week, but the council will ensure it is extended to cover the Christmas holidays if the Government’s position does not change.
