Dear Parents and Carers,

We have come to the end of our first week and I think we have all done brilliantly. I know that we have had to change some things slightly to make improvements but I believe that we are going in the right direction on a daily basis. The children have continued to be an asset to the school.

The number of cases in Bury continues to be high so thank you for wearing your masks on the way to school and on the school premises. Social distancing is crucial. It is so easy to forget to stand 2m apart from friends. Try your best and remind your children especially if they attend High School.

School has purchased an automatic thermometer. We can use this in school if we are concerned when a child tells us they feel unwell. If you do not have a thermometer at home and are worried then we can test it for you. If you do not want school to use it on your child then please let the office know. If your child has symptoms of COVID then they must stay at home. Please seek advice from your GP to get proper medical advice (or call 111). School has put the Greater Manchester 'Quick Guide for Parents' on our website.

Please can I remind you that the school is nut free. Please check your child's packed lunch to ensure that there is nothing with nuts in it. We have a number of children in school with severe allergies and these products put them at significant risk.

Thank you for all your support this week. I think you are all fabulous!

Have a lovely weekend.

Mrs. Perry.
