*LATEST update 29th March*

Hello everyone!

I hope you have had a good weekend and you are all staying safe and well.

If you haven’t already seen it, here’s our school rainbow to spread a bit of hope and cheer.

Please see below a copy of the letter sent out last week, just in case you missed it.  There is also a list of free apps that you or your child might find useful. (A list of 20 useful apps was published in one of the Sunday newspapers but only the free apps are included on the attached list.)

If you have any questions, or you just want to share something with us that your child has been doing, just drop us an email – we really do love to hear from you!

Take care

Year 6 photos – last Friday

Sorry for the delay in uploading these from last Friday but I’m sure you’ll agree it was ‘worth the wait!’  I now have a new screen saver so I don’t forget what a lovely afternoon we had! x

*LATEST update 25th March*

Hello everyone,

We hope your first week has gone as well as can be expected and we just wanted you to know we have missed seeing you all in school.

Home learning

Please see further information below on home learning activities and ideas to support you and your child.

Home learning update 25.03.20

Key worker childcare provision

Please remember to follow and adhere to the government’s lastest advice on staying at home. If you are a key worker, you should only book a childcare place at school if you and your partner are unable to work from home.

Scam email warning

We have been made aware that there is a scam email circulating telling parents who are eligible for free school meals to forward their bank details. Please do not provide your bank details, if you are contacted – parents whose children are eligible for free school meals have been contacted by school already.

Stay safe and well.

Hello Class 3

Morning Class 3,

Hope you are all getting on well at home? It certainly is a very strange and uncertain time for us all and we are missing all of you in Class 3.

We just wanted to say that whilst we have set activities for you to do at home, please only do what you can.  It is important during this time to spend quality time with family and do all the things you have never had time to do….and we are lucky that the weather is on our side this week so we can get outside (whilst we still can!).  So whether it’s baking, art, exercising, watching a film…enjoy this together.

It would be lovely to hear what you have been up to, so please send us an email at class3@bicton.shropshire.sch.uk and also if you need any help, advice etc. with work.

Take care and stay safe,

Mrs Thomas & Miss Moran

Hello Class 5!

It has been a very strange week and I’m so sorry I didn’t get chance to say a proper goodbye to you last week. I’m hoping very much that we will be able to get together again at some point before Year 6 start secondary school.

I hope that you’re all well and enjoying the beautiful weather.  Well done if you’ve managed to start some home learning, but don’t worry if you haven’t. It’s important that you’re spending time outside, enjoying the fresh air, and spending a bit of time relaxing and rejuvenating after everything that has happened in the last week or so.

From next week onwards, Mrs Johnson and I will be setting some home learning tasks and activities for you to complete if you are able to do so. These will be posted on Monday mornings so please check the website/email on Mondays.

We are also available to answer any queries by email at class5@bicton.shropshire.sch.uk during school hours Monday-Friday.

We would absolutely love to hear from you to hear about what you have been doing since school closed and also answer any questions you have about your work so please send us an email!

We are missing our wonderful class already, and school is a very quiet place without all of your lovely chatter.

Take care of yourselves and… WASH YOUR HANDS!

Miss Carr and Mrs Johnson

*Latest news Saturday 21st March*

Firstly, on behalf of all the staff, THANK YOU for all your support this week. The immense challenges we have faced this week have been like nothing we have ever faced before. We are eternally grateful for your support and the way in which our whole school community has come together in these past few days and we cannot thank you enough for the emails and personal messages we have received. It really does mean so much to all of us.

Key worker childcare provision

I have contacted all parents who have identified themselves as key workers and who have requested childcare provision in school next week (Monday 23rd onwards.) Please can the children, who have been confirmed as having a place, wear comfortable clothing and bring an old pair of trainers/outdoor shoes/wellies.  Please can you also email me at head@bicton.shropshire.sch.uk to let me know if your child would like a school dinner on Monday.

Please do not bring your child to school next week, unless you have received a confirmation email from me.

Important letters sent out yesterday
