Rockliffe Manor to Stay Open

We are writing this letter to you on the day of the start of another national lockdown. We acknowledge that for our whole community this continues to be an uncertain and anxious time, and that as a community we need to continue to support each other. We still firmly believe, and it is supported by senior clinicians, that school is the best place for children to be in terms of their education and also mental and emotional wellbeing. Rockliffe Manor Primary School will continue to remain open and children should continue to attend school. With this being said, we would like to remind you of the procedures we have in place to ensure that children and staff are as safe as possible. We can, of course, never be certain that our school will not have a positive case, but can assure you that we will always keep you fully informed and that we are robust in our safety procedures, ensuring that we follow the advice of Public Health England at all times. These safety procedures (which can be found on our full risk assessment on the website) include: Cleaning frequently throughout the day. This includes all tables, resources and ‘hot spot’ areas such as door handles. Regular hand washing for all children and staff, including on entry into school, playtimes, lunchtimes and after each activity. Small phase ‘bubbles’ which do not mix at all during the school day. This includes staff and children. Staff maintain social distance and no longer use communal areas in the same way. Risk assessments for any vulnerable staff and children which are reviewed on a regular basis. No non-essential visitors to the school and all staff meetings on Zoom, as well as regular staff safety briefings and reminders. The school office also remains closed. We would also ask that our parent community supports us in this through: Socially distancing (2m) at all times when on the playground or near the gate. Wearing a mask when dropping off and picking children up Talking to your children about the importance of handwashing Informing us immediately if you or anyone in your household displays any symptoms, and do not come onto school grounds. Please do communicate with us first so that we can manage the communication with our community, parents shouldn’t find out from other parents or children. Bringing your child to school if they do not have COVID symptoms. Normal attendance procedures still apply. As a school, we are also working hard to ensure that we are still able to engage with you as parents. Please do begin to use Google Classroom and also attend our virtual workshops/Zooms. We still want to share with you what the children are doing, speak to you about how best to support your child at home and provide home learning. We always welcome feedback, especially during this time. Please do contact us with any questions or feedback that you may have. Thank you, as always, for your support. With best regards Mrs A Vdovin Headteacher

Parents' Evening November 2020

As you all know, Parents’ Evening takes place at the beginning of autumn 2 each year. These meetings are a vital opportunity for parents and carers to discuss their child’s progress and come together to support their learning moving forwards. This being said, we still want to offer you this opportunity even though school is a bit different right now and we cannot have groups of parents on site. We therefore propose to offer all parents and carers either a phone call or a Zoom video meeting with the class teacher. These meetings will take place over two weeks (weeks beginning 16th November and 23rd November) . Please ensure you complete and return the completed letters sent home asap with your time preferences.

Rockliffe Manor - June Update Posted on: 18/06/2020

Rockliffe Manor - June Update

It has been just over two weeks since we began welcoming children in Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 back to school alongside their key worker children friends. We are excited to have so many children back at Rockliffe and have been taking part in many exciting things while adjusting to our 'new normal'. Year 1 have enjoyed spending time in the nature garden identifying plants and labelling their different parts, as have the key worker group who took part in some pond dipping, finding lots and lots of tadpoles and even a frog! Nursery have been practicing their ball skills in the basketball hoops in the BIG playground and have also spent time in the nature garden too. Reception have been creating story mountains in writing, working on recognising numbers in maths and have also created their own music band using different instruments. Year 6 have been busy applying their coding skills using Purple Mash and have also taken part in a 'change maker challenge' creating artwork for the residents at Puddingstone Grange care home. Our teachers have also continued to upload virtual lessons and assemblies, as well as many other interesting videos which we hope you are all enjoying. Head over to the Rockliffe Manor Youtube channel to check them out -  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5KDaRx7dRUsM5ACpMUTNRg and keep up with us on twitter too @RockliffeManor
