Welsh Government Written Statement - Return to school arrangements
Dear Parents,
Please see the following statement which was issued by The Welsh Government last night. It confirms that schools across Wales will not be reopening for most children for face-to-face learning until 18th January.
Teaching staff will support your children with their learning remotely. Please feel free to contact them using Seesaw (Nursery to Year 3) or through Class Dojo (Years 4 - 6) if you have any difficulties at all and they will do their very best to help. You can also send an email to us at bpmail@hwbmail.net and we will get back to you.
This is not the start to the New Year that we were all hoping for, however, the most important thing is that everybody keeps themselves and their families as safe as possible.
Very best wishes
Miss Wood.
