02.02.2021 –  Live Lessons for Reception Children

 

Dear Parents/Carers of Reception children

Firstly, I hope you are all keeping safe and that you and your families are keeping well.

Last week the school ran a review of remote learning. We are acutely aware of some of the challenges that parents face when trying to educate children at home whilst juggling work, other family members and generally managing during the pandemic and National Lockdown.  It is with this in mind that the school has decided to trial live lessons. This means that the Reception teachers, Ms Davila and Mr Engberg, and Ms Fidan/Ms Kiki from the Reception team are going to deliver their first live lessons this week.

The following lessons are going to be delivered to the children in Opal and Pearl Class. They will need to be ready and prepared to access a device to attend the lesson.  The timetable is as follows.  The Reception Teachers may add to/change the timetable so please keep up to date with information coming from Ms Davila and Mr Engberg in regard to this.

RECEPTION LIVE LEARNING 

  • Thursday 4th February – 14:30-15:00: Miss Davila and Miss Fidan – Story time
  • Friday 5th February – 10:00-10:30: Miss Davila and Miss Fidan – Maths meeting

Please note that the lessons may not take the full half an hour as allocated, but this gives the date and times when we’d like to see the children online.  Children who are currently in school will log on from in school to join the live session as required.

In preparation if you do not have a device, please contact the school today so we can support you. Do your best to provide your child with a quiet space where they can join the live lesson and be there to support them to join and access the lesson in the first instance. The lessons will be delivered via Google Meets and an invitation to join will be sent to your child.

Miss Davila & Mr Engberg will provide all the information that you need.

If you have any queries with this then please contact Ms Davila/Mr Engberg or the school.

I am looking forward to being able to offer live lessons to our Reception children especially in light of the Government’s announcement that schools will not open before 8th March. It is vital that the Reception children access as much learning as possible to support their transition to year 1 and this will be a good opportunity for your child to see and speak with their teachers.

Yours sincerely

 

Julie D’Abreu
