Dear St Mary’s families,
We were so excited to see so many of our lovely children in their Zoom assemblies this week. Although live learning is often chaotic, particularly the singing, it really was a bright spot in all our weeks and I hope the children enjoyed seeing all their classmates and teachers. At the moment staff are also having to stay apart in separate rooms wherever possible so it was lovely to see them as well! Now we know so many children can access this we will be making this a weekly event. The timetable will be as follows up until half term:
Monday 10.30 a.m. Year 3 Zoom assembly
Monday 11.30 a.m. Year 4 Zoom assembly
Wednesday 10.00 a.m. Year 2 Zoom assembly
Wednesday 10.30 a.m. Year 5 Zoom assembly
Wednesday 11.00 a.m. Year 1 Zoom assembly
Wednesday 11.30 a.m. Year 6 Zoom assembly
Wednesday 11.50 a.m. Reception Zoom assembly
We have not timetabled one for nursery as they are so very young but we will continue to post lots of lovely activities in their special room on Fronter.
At present we have no further news on when schools may be allowed to open but we are hoping that this will be soon. Until then we will continue to adapt and improve our remote learning provision to ensure that all children are able to access learning in one form or another.
If you wish to see the full range of our remote learning provision please look on our website under parent information, remote learning provision.
I will leave you today with a passage from St Matthew’s Gospel that the Archbishop of Southwark shared with staff this week. Here the Lord Jesus says to each of us, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light”.
God bless you all,
Miss O’Callaghan
