Dear Parents,
We will be holding our sports day events the week starting the 12th July. The events will run in Southwark Park. Due to COVID restrictions we have waited as late as possible in the term to finalise arrangements. Unfortunately, we regret to say that we will not be able invite parents to join their children for sports day events this year. This is due to the high current prevalence of COVID in the local authority. Additionally, the recent DfE guidelines for spectator events in schools are very complicated and difficult for us to enforce. So we have had to take this decision. We appreciate that both parents and children will be disappointed about this. We will take photographs of the events to share on the website.
We ask that parents respect this request as failure to comply could lead us to cancel Sports Day events or to end the activities early which will spoil the fun for the children. T-Shirts: Teachers will be requesting that children wear specific colour t-shirts as they will be working within a team. They will send home slips to indicate the colour required. Hygiene: Bubbles will be separated and equipment will be sprayed to enable good hygiene standards to be maintained.
Timetable:
- Monday 12th July Reception and Nursery children
- Tuesday 13th July Year 5 & 6
- Wednesday 14th July Year 1 & 2
- Thursday 15th July Year 3 & 4
Please ensure children are wearing suntan lotion if the weather is hot and that they have water to drink. Please help us to ensure that the children have a fantastic sports day by following our requests.
