Class ‘Catch-Up’ Assemblies
Starting this week (w/c 1st Feb), all classes will have the opportunity to join a virtual class assembly. These brief online meetings will be held weekly via Zoom and allow children to keep in touch with their teacher and classmates.
These meetings are not live lessons and as so attendance is completely optional. Rather, they are an opportunity for the children to see and engage with their class teacher and their peers on a regular basis, celebrate the good work being done both at home and in school, and help maintain a sense of community and belonging.
Each class will have their own time slot for their assembly (see timetable below) and these will remain the same each week.
| Wed | Thurs | Fri | |
| 9:15 | Y2 | ||
| 10:15 | Y1 | ||
| 10:45 | Y3 | ||
| 11:30 | Reception | ||
| 1:30 | Y6 | Y4 | Y5 |
An invitation to join the meeting will be sent to parents in advance by text via Teachers 2 Parents.
