Look out for the latest whole school house challenge on Dojo as well as the weekly TLA challenges which are posted on your year group page.<\/p>\n<p>The children continue to work hard and fully engage with their remote learning which is great to see. Your continued support as parents is much appreciated as we prepare to enter another week of remote learning. Feedback from the survey that Mr Gross sent out to you a few weeks ago has been very useful in helping us continually review and where possible improve the remote learning experience. As a primary team we were very happy to read your positive comments and equally your suggestions for improvement. We received many requests for live specialist lessons and as a result these will begin on Monday 2<sup>nd<\/sup> November. Links to live lessons will be published on your class timetable and we hope that these prove to work well. \u00a0We are keen to keep the year group specialist days as class timetables are now established and working well but as with everything we will continue to review our arrangements and I am always keen to receive your feedback.<\/p>\n<p>Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Mrs Joanne Smith<br \/>\n<strong>Head of Primary<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]This week\u2019s assembly was certainly a frightening Friday frenzy.
