Value of the half term: Seesaw Notifications Following recent changes by Seesaw, we are aware that families are receiving an increased number of email notifications, for example if another parent likes a post. Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to choose which notifications you want to receive and which you don’t, they are either off or on. School has reviewed how we use Seesaw to try to help/support with this and to ensure that you receive the most relevant notifications. From Monday, staff will send direct messages only to the family accounts (not the child’s account). This would then send the email notification for items that are relevant to the family member. This will allow you to switch off email notifications for your child’s account so that you will stop receiving notifications when another person comments or likes a post. You are still able to like or comment on posts in the app but you won’t receive the notification to your email address. This does mean that it is important that you are logged into your Family app and it is activated. If you need the log in details, please let the school office know via Seesaw or email. Thank you.

No After School Choir This Wednesday There will be no Choir this week as Mr Wiebe is away so please could you make alternative arrangements to pick up children. It will restart on Wednesday 12 October. Morning Access to School We wanted to remind parents of our morning routine for children coming into school. The gates open at 8.35 am with the KS2 gate for pupils only and all adults accompanying KS1 children entering through the KS1 gate. This minimises any congestion and allows the KS2 children to enter the premises independently. Staff on the gates are there to greet, take messages and ensure that everyone enters and exits the premises safely by following the above routine. Please can we ask that you are understanding and respectful if reminded to follow the entrance/exit systems. All children will be able to wait on the playground until 8.45 am, supervised by members of staff. At 8.45 am, the teaching staff will collect the children from the playground. Parents will be able to use either gate to leave the school premises after the children have gone into class.
