Welcome to Our School

It is with great pleasure that we extend a very warm welcome to St Teresa's.

We are a Catholic Primary School and as such we believe that the ethos of our school must, in all aspects, reflect the teachings of Christ in the Gospels. Indeed, Our aim is to provide a high quality Christian Education based upon the teachings of Christ in the Gospels, where each individual can live life to the full; love like Jesus, learn from every opportunity and grow together in faith.

We hope that you enjoy looking through our website and sharing many of the special events and moments that take place in our school.  Should you require any further information, or you would like to visit our school then please do not hesitate to contact us.

COVID-19 Update - Information for Children Attending School

1st June 2020

For those parents/carers who are critical workers and require childcare:

Our current offer to key workers and vulnerable children is:

• School is open for from 8.30am until 4pm.
• School will continue to open for the children of critical workers and vulnerable children as we continue through the Summer Term.
• Due to the number of children now attending the provision we have split the group into three: there are two EYFS/KS1 groups and one KS2 group. We will be using the Pre-School building, Year Three Classroom and the Hall.
• Siblings have been kept in the same group.
• When picking up and dropping off:
• Please bring your child to the main entrance of school.
• It is expected that all children are brought to school and collected by one parent/carer only.
• It is imperative that parents/carers leave the site as soon as their child is safely in school to facilitate safe social distancing.
• The front door will be kept open and parents/carers must indicate to the office member of staff that they have arrived.  Parents/carers are then encouraged to wait outside the building where possible.
• Tape will be used to support the two metre social distancing rule.
• Belongings brought to and from home are discouraged.  However any belongings that are necessary must be kept in the base.
• Communication between parents/carers and staff must take place via email, SeeSaw, Evidence Me! or telephone.  No communication will take place in person on the playground. Parents/Carers must not enter the school building.

Each day, please ensure your child comes to school with:

• A packed lunch.  No school dinners are now available.
• A filled water bottle.
• Suitable clothing for the weather we are expecting.
• Hand gel labelled with their name, if you have any.
• Hand cream labelled with their name.
• A healthy snack as there will be not toast and milk available.
• Children should wear their own clothes that are suitable for sport that can be changed each day.

If you require key worker provision please send an email, at least a week in advance, in order for school to manage group numbers.  Please send the email to Mrs Rigby
