PREPARING FOR SEPTEMBER #6

#6 IF a Child Shows Symptoms We have gone through the updated Government Guidance sent Friday evening and I am really pleased that there are very few adjustments from what we had already planned. We have put together what we will do (plus hyperlinks to government websites to help you). Everything is on our website (click and then scroll to Update #6): https://bit.ly/34zBqPi We know this is a worry for you. Please be assured that risks to children are minimal. Our staff are more at risk and they are well prepared and know how to minimise risk to them and to children. We know how important your children are to you and we will do all we can to help them feel safe, be happy and to build up their confidence - we also want to do the same for all our staff.. The meetings over the next two days are really important. If you cannot attend, please answer the phone when we call so we can make sure we have everything in place for when Y1-Y6 come in half-classes on Thursday or Friday. Stay safe and we look forwards to catching up with you over this week. Sash Hamidi Executive Headteacher ht@priestmead.harrow.sch.uk

PREPARING FOR SEPTEMBER #5

# 5 FACEMASKS Lots being said about Facemasks in the news and on social media. Children under the age of 11 are NOT required to wear a face mask in school. They can wear it on their journey to school but it must be disposed of before they enter the school building and their hands need to be washed or cleaned using our sanitising gel dispensers outdoors. Some staff may be wearing face masks for their health. We also remind parents/carers to keep a distance if speaking with staff (to minimise risk) - please do not be offended! Above all else the focus is on washing hands, avoid touching faces and making contact with others, keeping a distance and "catch it bin it, kill it" regarding sneezing or coughing or use your inside arm/elbow. Everything is on our website too: https://bit.ly/34zBqPi Sash Hamidi Executive Headteacher

YOUR 1:1 PARENT/CARER/CHILD MEETINGS TUESDAY 1ST OR WEDNESDAY 2ND SEPTEMBER: Next week you are coming in for 1:1 Parent meetings so you can practise which entrances you are meant to use and exits, walk in with your child, see what the school looks like, meet your child's teacher and speak to leaders, see how the room is set up, tell us about how you are as a family and feel reassured about the term ahead. Our staff will be around to guide you! If you have not turned up within 5 mins of your appointment time we will telephone you to catch up! If you are coming in, your child does NOT need to wear uniform for the appointment, but they will need to wear full uniform when they come in on Thursday or Friday!

PREPARING FOR SEPTEMBER #1

Dear Priestmead Families and especially our Priestmead children! I hope you are all well and have had an enjoyable summer, despite the windy wet weather of recent days! We have really missed you and are sooooooo excited to see you all next week! Over this week we will send a series of 8 updates and snippets of information for you to familiarise yourselves with ahead of Priestmead opening next week. You were sent details of your 1:1 parent meetings in July but we will send a reminder later this week. If you cannot attend this meeting, we will telephone you instead. Update #1 - the Government has issued a document for parents/carers regarding returning to school which I have attached. Have a read - as a school, many of you know how safely we managed our phased reopening before the holidays and this standard will be maintained. All this information is also on our website - click here: https://bit.ly/34zBqPi More updates over this week! Sash Hamidi Executive Headteacher ht@priestmead.harrow.sch.uk
