I hope you are all safe and well in your bubbles. This final communication for term 2 is not exactly what we thought we would have, but once again we thank you for all doing the best you can at home with your children and for your lovely messages of support which were gratefully received by our staff.

Our building works at school are back on track in Level 3 and a lot of the children were watching how the courtyards are changing and often asked the construction workers lots of questions at break times! So I thought I would include some pictures you can show the children. Hopefully when they come back to school we will be three quarters finished. Between rooms 1-14 we will have extended roof areas which provide some shade in summer and shelter in winter and extend the work space for the classrooms and the courtyards will be upgraded as well. We will also have Room 26, a new open plan double classroom space.

Below is a competition that has come through from EZLunch and Pita Pit for families in the school holidays if you are interested and the link below is to a video from our staff to your children. Many thanks to Fiona De L’Isle for putting this together for us.  This will also be on our school website under Lockdown – Hello from Glamorgan School. Last year’s video is also still there if they want to watch that as well.

Finally at the bottom of this email are the links I have sent through over the past weeks that might be useful for you to have in one place.

I wish you all the best and will email you all  again prior to school resuming when more is known about alert level changes at that time.
