Dear Parent/Guardian,
Football’s Coming Home
If your child is a football fan and therefore likely to be staying up late to watch he final we would like to do what other schools across the country are doing and offer the flexibility for football fans to enjoy the match without missing out on much needed sleep!
We would much rather the children slept in longer in the morning than came in to school tired and grumpy after cheering England on. Therefore, on Monday, School will still open at normal staggered start times for each year group, but any child arriving up to 10.30am will not be marked as late and will not miss any lessons. If your child will be arriving late please let the school office know by leaving a message on the school absence line so that we can order school meals (if applicable) from the kitchen.
It’s 55 years since England reached a major football final so let them watch, talk about the importance of the National Anthem, talk about pride and resilience. This is a learning opportunity, so let’s make the most of it and make sure the children recall 2021 for England being in the Euro’s final!
Yours faithfully
Mr D Miller
Head Teacher
