Letter to Parents/Carers – 12th February 2021
We have had a very interesting week with the snow and cold temperatures. The delayed start time allowed the necessary snow clearing efforts to be completed. Many a snowman has been built this week.
There is an Online Safety talk happening live on Facebook on 24th February beginning at 7pm.
Here is the event page – Online Safety Facebook Live | Facebook – it links through so that you can get it in your Facebook diary if you are interested and then join live from there.
Can I encourage you to send any questions you have about social media apps/ online safety to this email address so they can answer them on 24th Feb – info@cybersafescotland.org
All staff working in school now have access to lateral flow testing. This will commence from Sunday 14th and will be carried out twice weekly. This is in line with all ACC schools.
We await confirmation from First Minister Nicola Sturgeon on Tue 16th Feb that the phased return to schools will start from Mon 22nd Feb. We have our plans in place ready to implement when this is confirmed.
We have reached half term so next week we will have the Monday holiday and then the double inset days on Tue & Wed.
I see in the forecast that a thaw is on its way so the snow will soon be melting. Mixed feelings as I know it provides hours of fun form many members of our school community. 😊
I hope you all have a pleasant and safe half term break. I will share updates next week regarding phased return to schools as soon as they are available.
Take care.
Kind regards
Caroline
