We just wanted to share the fantastic news that our basketball team won the competition last night and are now Bury Basketball Champions. All the pupils were brilliant and tried their absolute best, and were a credit to our school. Well done to all involved and a special mention to coach Leon for organising this event.

Dear Parents and Carers

We have all survived the first two weeks of the new term! The children have worked hard and their behaviour has been a credit to you.

As you probably know, there has been several positive cases of COVID in children and adults in school. In certain classes the number of positive cases is over 10%. If this remains the case on Monday morning those classes will need to have further restrictions put in place. There is no change to the arrangements for drop off and pick up at the moment. Increased restrictions in school would entail returning to stricter class bubbles and further restrictions in the lunch hall. If your child wishes to wear a mask in school, then they can, but we are not recommending this. Staff are wearing masks in communal areas and socially distancing.

Have a lovely weekend.

Keep safe and well

Dear Parents and Carers,

 

As school moves in to the last week of term can I send a plea out to all of you? I know that the Government has relaxed all COVID restrictions but here in school we are remaining cautious to protect staff and pupils as we move towards the summer holidays. I heard on the news this morning that there is a 'natural break' because schools have finished for summer. Clearly, many, including St. Margaret's have not. It would be fantastic to complete the term without sending any bubbles home. If that were to happen, then it would have a knock on effect on families who would have to isolate at the beginning of the holidays.

 

If your child is unwell they need to be taken for a PCR test. This is the advice of the Bury Public Health Team, because of the rising numbers in the area.

 

If your child is unwell please do not send them in to school, take them for a PCR test.

 

Please help to keep everyone here safe and well.

 

Mrs. Perry.
