Dear Parents/Carers,

I have received reports that a scam email is being sent to parents, asking them for bank details if they have children who qualify for Free School Meals.Please remember not give out private information (such as bank details or passwords), reply to text messages, download attachments or click on any links in emails if you’re not sure they’re genuine.  Please see this government link for further helpful information: https://www.gov.uk/report-suspicious-emails-websites-phishing

I hope you are all managing to cope in your strange new situations. I know your children's teachers are working hard to support you and your children and provide you with activities to help you structure your days. I do recognise that some of you may be finding this 'home schooling' daunting.

My advice is do what you can, when you can and make sure you have positive experiences and fun times too. I know your world must feel like it has been turned upside down, but so has the children's and they understand a lot less about why. Playing games, planting in the garden, listening to music, dancing will all help your child's development and learning as much as the home learning set by school. Remember, we are often saying we don't have enough time, now we do! Please look after yourselves and enjoy being with one another.

Take care and I am thinking about you all,

Mrs Randles :)
