Dear families,

 

It is a pleasure to see our children settling back into school life so well after the long absence. Thank you for choosing to keep our children, staff and families safe by choosing to wear a face covering when on the school premises. You will see that all staff wear a face mask or visor on the school yard as well as when they are in communal areas within the school building. 

 

Please follow us on out Twitter link at the bottom of the home page as we regularly post pictures of children enjoying stimulating learning experiences. Also, check your child's Class Page each Friday to see what they have been up to during the week. 

 

As you know at WDPS we promote healthy lives for all children and adults as we all benefit from positive time spent playing and exercising outdoors. Research shows that physical exercise is important for mental as well as physical wellbeing. Please encourage your family to spend quality time outdoors together as it is a lovely respite from screen time.

 

Improving Reading is a whole school priority focus as all children need the skills to conduct research and also to enjoy the creative pleasure of the written word. As a family enjoy reading some of the book reviews which you can access from the homepage: 'About Us' then 'WDPS-Whole School Focus.' Let’s all work together to make every WDPS child a fluent, keen and resilient reader at home and at school.

Let’s make sure all our children receive the best wraparound support so that they achieve all that they are capable of in life.

 

Enjoy a fun and peaceful weekend.

 

Kind regards,

 

Mick
