Keeping in Touch
We are closing from Friday 20th March for all pupils unless they fall into the groups outlined in the letters at the top of this page
How we can be in touch with you:
1) This web page will host all of the links and most up to date information for you and your children
2) Twitter - please follow us @StOswalds01562 - we will keep this feed going for as long as possible
3) Text message service - This may be intermittently available as we can only access this whilst onsite
4) I will post on the school blog daily. This will be more to keep in touch with the children and to provide a sense of community - blog link
How you can be in touch with us:
We would like to keep contact at a minimum during this difficult time. We won't be able to answer queries regarding the work that is set for the child or if they are having difficulty coping with the work. All of the teachers have gone above and beyond and have produced a very comprehensive package of work for your children both for the short and medium term. Messages can be sent via a comment on the school blog however it may not be possible to answer quickly.
Home Education
We understand that keeping children occupied at home will be a challenging task. We don't know how long the closure will be for or when we will reopen again. We've put together a variety of information and resources so that children will have some semblance of education in the event of a closure, for the short and medium term. Please be aware that there may be times during the closure that staff may be ill and therefore unable to provide work - we will provide you with additional resources that you will have to use if you are able.
