  URGENT HOT WEATHER UPDATE

  We are OPEN all week. As the weather is very hot, please ensure your children:

  -Are covered in sunscreen, before they come to school & wear a     hat

  -Wear loose fitting light clothes  (no joggers)  & carry water while   coming to and from school

  - On Monday 18^th & Tuesday 19^th July the school will finish     school at 1.45pm so that children will be at home during the   greatest heat of the day. However, we will remain open for   families who require us to, as they are working. Please come to   the usual playgrounds to collect your children at 1.45pm, we will   only be outside for 10 mins, (or less).

  -We will finish at normal time on Wednesday, and the rest of the   week.

  -If you decide not to send your child to school on these days,   please access our online learning (www.northburyprimaryschool)

  -Staff will be flexible about lesson delivery and will use their   discretion as to when pauses within lessons need to be taken for   everyone to take a break and have plenty to drink

   

  We will have lunchtime inside, be providing calming activities through the day, and have no outdoor P.E or games on Monday & Tuesday.

  Children have access to water in the classes, and we may move our Yr 5 & 6 children into halls/ other spaces as these are the hottest classes.

  A reminder that World Book Day is Friday 4th March. We have lots going on in school throughout the day including an author workshop. But there are also a range of things you can do at home to prepare:

   

  • Reading challenge - your child would have received a letter with the reading challenge before half term. The challenge is for your child to read as many books as possible at home and record them on the sheet provided. Please return the sheet to your child's teacher by Monday 28th February.
  • Story in a Jar - Use a clear empty jar to create a scene from your child's favourite book. Please bring all jars to school by Monday 28th February.
  • Dress Up - As always, World Book Day on Friday 4th March will be a chance for your child to dress up as their favourite character from a book. Letters were sent out before half term with more information.

   

  There will be prizes for the best examples from all of the above.
