Monday 23rd March 

Good Morning Cygnets and Ducklings.

Firstly can I just start with an apology. We are very sorry we didn't get chance to say bye to all our lovely children and their families on Friday. However it was a very strange and quite an emotional day for many of us. We told our classes that we would 'see them soon' as it felt better than a 'goodbye'. We can't express how sad we felt and we will miss you all so very much. Mrs Griffiths and I are now trying to be as positive as possible and hopefully things will start to get better soon and we will all be back together again before we know it! Please everyone stay in and stay safe and to all our key worker parents THANKYOU!

We have had lovely weather this weekend and today is meant to be just as nice, so please try and get outside in the garden. I hope all our children who were poorly last week are starting to feel much better today.
