Preparing for the New School Year

 Winston with a Twist!

Throughout the summer break we have been preparing for students to begin their school career in Year 7 or to return to learning in the classroom, for the rest of the school.

Every member of our school community will be expected to play their part by following the new rules aimed at keeping students and staff safe.

So the school day has been modified to reduce the number of students out on the patio at any one time and zones have been created and labelled to keep Year Groups separate as far as is possible.  So for example you can see below that Year 7 and Year 9 will use the canopy area and the lower patio for break and lunchtimes BUT they will be out for their breaks at different times, therefore, there will only be one Year Group in a zone at a time.  Year 7 and 8 will have an early break and lunchtime will have a longer stagger.  Additional picnic tables have been purchased and placed under the canopy, so that more children can eat packed lunches outside.



 Year 7 and 9, this is your zone for break and lunchtimes.
Other Year Groups have their zones marked out in a similar way.

You must use the hand sanitiser as you arrive at school, before entering the building and again as you enter each classroom, throughout the day, as well as before eating at break and lunchtime.  

Everything that we are doing is to help to keep you safe and to keep your families safe.

Corridors now have one ways systems, look for the signs!

Its going to be great to be back in school but we will all need to work together.
