Weekly School Newsletter
From Woodlands Outreach
Please find attached a list of useful contacts and websites we have compiled to share with parents to help support them over the coming weeks.
Updated Information for Key Workers
Empower Trust policy is;
· Government policy that all children should remain at home if possible.
· Children of key workers who have both parents/carers who are key workers, or single parents who are on the list should be offered a place.
· Children of key workers who have a partner who is not on the list should not be offered a place unless they can provide clear evidence of why their child cannot be cared for at home.
· Government has placed a requirement on key worker parents to obtain confirmation from their employer that, based on business continuity arrangements, their specific role is necessary for the continuation of this essential public service.

STEM Day
I hope that parents and carers enjoyed the opportunity to come and look at what the children had been up to on our STEM day last week.
Each class did some brilliant activities throughout the day and created a display of wonderful work to show how diverse our world is.
Kingswood Residential October 2020
We have to give our final numbers to Kingswood by Monday for the year 6 residential in October 2020.
If you have not yet reserved your child’s space, please do so by Monday 16th, as we cannot guarantee we can book extra places later on.
Thanks
Horrible Histories
As part of our Roman topic and as we have been learning about script writing in Literacy, Next week I would like to show the class the Horrible Histories – Rotten Romans film.
It is rated as a PG – if anybody would prefer that their child/children don’t watch the film please let me know.
Thank you, Miss Taylor

Parent’s Evening
