Dear Parents and Carers,                                

I hope you are all well and have had an excellent summer break. We are all very excited about welcoming all children back to school. Please remember the first day of term is Thursday 2nd September. All the staff at Glemsford will be doing their upmost to ensure your children have a fantastic autumn term with high quality learning experiences in a safe and enjoyable environment.

Children will need to be in school uniform and come in their PE kit on the days they have PE. They do however need to bring in a coat, water bottle and a packed lunch (if needed) in a small bag.

You must not send your child into school if they are displaying any COVID 19 symptoms. If this is the case, you should get your child tested ASAP and let the school know the results. If your child is displaying symptoms at school we will contact you to arrange for your child to be picked up immediately.

We are offering wrap around care, breakfast and after school club in the main school and Nursery will also have a breakfast and after school club. Both clubs will be chargeable and will need to be booked through Parentmail a week in advance. Breakfast club will start at 7.50am.

Please make sure we can contact you throughout the school day and that the school has the correct contact information. Please check dojo and Parentmail regularly as these will be the main platform we use to contact you.

The school will continue to work together with positivity, patience and good humour to make this a great year for everyone.

Warmest regards,

Headteacher
