In addition, we would just like to re-iterate the following information before we welcome back our pupils over the next couple of weeks on their allotted teaching days.
Foundation Phase Pupils
All foundation phase pupils are to access the school via the main school gates situated off Palalwyf Avenue. There are 2m markers along the drive and pathways for you to follow that make their way around the infant building in a one way system. There will also be a member of staff on hand to take your child's temperature with a non-contact thermometer and ask for confirmation that you haven't answered YES to any of the Healthcare questions. Please adhere to social distancing and the one way system at all times.
Teachers names and classes are displayed on the classroom doors so you will know where to drop off your child. Once you have handed your child to their teacher at the classroom door, please continue to follow the one way system around the Infant building and exit through the pedestrian gate leading onto Palalwyf Avenue. Please adhere to social distancing and the one way system at all times.
