Building work in KS2

As you know, Salford Diocese recently generously granted the building of a new KS2 classroom, which is due to be completed next month. Following this, further extensive internal works will begin in the main school building. These developments will allow us to create a purpose-built Butterfly classroom, three small offices, and the beginnings of a sensory room, with the Diocese funding the construction of the space.

In preparation for these works, we will be undertaking a significant relocation across the school, with 9 of our 12 classes moving into new learning spaces. In order to carry this out safely and efficiently, the school will now need to close earlier than originally planned on Wednesday 22nd July.

To support continued learning, work will be provided for children to complete at home on Thursday 23rd July and Friday 24th July. Parents and carers are very welcome to return this completed work to school in September, when it will be marked by class teachers.

Further details regarding collection times on Wednesday 22nd July, arrangements for the day, and the work to be completed on 23rd and 24th July will be shared closer to the time.

The decision to close school early has not been made lightly; however, the additional time is essential to ensure that the transition into the new and improved learning spaces is carried out safely, with minimal disruption for the children when they return.

We appreciate that this change may cause some inconvenience and thank you for your understanding and continued support as we work to improve our school environment for all of our pupils.
