Updated Restart Plans for Phase 3

Back to News
23rd Sep 2020

Good afternoon.
Just to update you all regarding our restart plans for Phase 3, October.

From Monday 28th September the children will have the following finishing times:
P1 1.50pm
P2 1.50pm
P3 1.55pm

P4 2.40pm
P5 2.45pm
P6 2.45pm
P7 2.45pm

These will run through until half-term and will be reviewed mid-October.
The earlier opening time of 8:30am will remain.

Unfortunately we don't have a way to safely provide after-school clubs next term without mixing classes. We will continue to look at ways these can be reintroduced.
Breakfast Club and School's Out will continue in current formats.

Thank-you for all your support and engagement over the last number of weeks.
The feedback from the survey was really positive and reassuring especially given the content of the broadcasts by the PM, FM and DFM yesterday evening.

Take care, stay safe and feel free to come a have a chat if you have any questions regarding any aspect of our school
Mr Gray
