Although the last few days have felt like winter, when we return after the Easter break we will be in the summer term.

We have not had to close our school this year to the vast majority of children, yet COVID has had, and is still having an impact on the attendance of both pupils and staff.  It is likely that testing will be asked less frequently but please let’s work together as a community with the most sensible of approaches.  Look out for the symptoms, a high temperature, cough, cold, sore throat and do not send children to school if they are unwell.

I am really looking forward to the summer term and hope that this year we are able to lay on a number of events that parents can attend.  I know the ’Friends of KG’ will be planning a Summer Fair for 24^th June and will launch this at a coffee morning on Wednesday 4^th May to which you are all invited.

I hope you all have a great Easter break and come back to school re-energised on Tuesday 19^th April (Monday 18^th is a bank holiday).

Thank you all for making this such a successful term.

As we move into summer remember how important it is that, as a community, we look after one another.  Compassion is one of our school values.  It is not something we just want our children to focus on but all of us.  A smile, a listening ear, understanding and support is something we should look to offer to one another as adults and model this for our children.
