COVID-19: Coronavirus
Dear parents
I hope you and your families are safe and well.
We have been very busy in school making sure everything is as safe as it can be, following all of the government recommendations.
School will reopen to Nursery, Reception, Y1 and Y6 week beginning 8 June. Letters have been sent to our parents of whom this affects.
On Friday 29th May we will also send out another survey to our relevant parents to check which of you have decided to send your children back to school. Understandably, lots of parents are concerned and could not answer this question last week. It is important for you to respond to the survey so that we know we have adequate staffing and capacity to adhere to all social distancing rules.
The government’s guidance remains the same to the non-eligible age groups:
Current COV19 DfE Government Guidance
As a country, we all need to do what we can to reduce the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
That is why the government has given clear guidance on self-isolation, household isolation and social distancing.
And the most recent scientific advice on how to further limit the spread of COVID-19 is clear. If children can stay safely at home, they should, to limit the chance of the virus spreading.
Should a registered key worker of a St. Rose pupil now need an emergency cover, please email enquiries@olstrose.bham.sch.uk with at least 48 hours notice so that we can locate a place for you.
Those children in non-eligible year groups will continue to receive daily online direction and provision from their class teacher. However, the class teacher may not be so quick to respond to the children as they too will have duties in school.
If you have any concerns at all, please contact school via email and we will do our very best to support.
God bless all our families and keep us safe at this time.
We are, of course, worried that the closure of our school could affect the childrens' spiritual life, education, health and well-being.
So... here are some videos to help you relax, meditate and even sleep and a list of websites that have great resources for you and your child/children to make the very best use of their time.
We have also included some fun exercise videos for you and the children to have a go at... being as healthy and active as we can is one way of making sure our immune system is working at its very best.
