Key Messages I hope this E-bulletin find you and your family safe and well. As you may already be aware, a member of one of our Year 7 classes tested positive for COVID-19 this week. All students identified as close contacts of the child have been asked to self-isolate. This has been limited to one tutor group and a small number of children from another group. The decision as to who constitutes a close contact is based on the latest Public Health England guidance which we are following. Unless your child has been asked to self-isolate they should attend school as normal. Please take care and continue to ensure that you and your family follow all government guidance, including the additional Lancashire measures of not mixing with other households. Where students do need to self-isolate, their homework and school work is set remotely, using our ClassCharts website and mobile App. All students and parents have unique access codes to ClassCharts. We encourage you to regularly check the work your child has been allocated and also to view any positive points they have received for work completed. ClassCharts even allows you to view their behaviour in school in live time! If you do not have your parent access code for ClassCharts please contact [email protected]clearly stating your full name and your child’s name. This week we celebrated National Poetry Day. Students considered 'Love in the Time of Coronavirus' by Nikita Gill, a poem specially commissioned for National Poetry Day. Inspired by this and by work from our parent and local poet Astrid Middleton, students have been busy writing poems to be displayed on our celebratory wall in the school dining hall. I look forward to featuring a range of student poems in next week’s edition. As the weather starts to become more inclement, please do ensure that your child brings a warm coat and a suitable waterproof bag to school each day.

I hope this E-bulletin find you and your family safe and well.
As you may already be aware, a member of one of our Year 7 classes tested positive for COVID-19
this week. All students identified as close contacts of the child have been asked to self-isolate. This
has been limited to one tutor group and a small number of children from another group. The decision
as to who constitutes a close contact is based on the latest Public Health England guidance which
we are following. Unless your child has been asked to self-isolate they should attend school as normal.
Please take care and continue to ensure that you and your family follow all government guidance,
including the additional Lancashire measures of not mixing with other households.
Where students do need to self-isolate, their homework and school work is set remotely, using our
ClassCharts website and mobile App. All students and parents have unique access codes to
ClassCharts. We encourage you to regularly check the work your child has been allocated and also
to view any positive points they have received for work completed. ClassCharts even allows you to
view their behaviour in school in live time! If you do not have your parent access code for ClassCharts

This week we celebrated National Poetry Day. Students considered 'Love in the Time of Coronavirus'
by Nikita Gill, a poem specially commissioned for National Poetry Day. Inspired by this and by work
from our parent and local poet Astrid Middleton, students have been busy writing poems to be
displayed on our celebratory wall in the school dining hall. I look forward to featuring a range of
student poems in next week’s edition.
