COVID - 19 Information For Parents

Message to Welford's children and families from the Leadership Team (28.5.21)

Dear Parents/Carers,

I hope everyone had a good holiday last week with some family fun in the sunshine.

After the half-term children have returned to their learning enthusiastic, engaged, and excited to be back together in their year groups and we are so proud of them...

As usual, the staff have put the needs of the children at the heart of all they do and worked with them to overcome any worries they might have to ensure they are settled, safe and secure in their classrooms and I know you will join with me in thanking them for that.

It is great to see Year 5 children go to the Brighouse this week for an overnight residential and the enthusiastic take up for extra-curricular activities which shows the trust you place in us. Hopefully we will soon be able to increase numbers and our range of clubs when it is safe to increase group sizes.

Please remember to look at the school twitter feed and blogs to get a flavour of the activities that children experience in school which help to ensure a broad and balanced curriculum is offered to all. It is something we should celebrate.

We continue to be very proud of the Welford school community with its dedicated staff, wonderful children and supportive parents/carers as we continue to respond - together - so positively to any challenges we face.

It's been lovely to have some sunshine this week and as the temperatures increase please remember sunscreen, a hat if necessary and a suitable light summer uniform in our school colours to ensure children don't overheat.

Mrs Foster, Mrs Barnes, Mrs Kirk, Mr Reid and Mr Wills

Congratulations to all our Gold Book children for this half term. They have worked so hard to be chosen by their teachers and we look forward to celebrating this achievement with the children today.

Please look out for their pictures on the website gallery below very soon!

Birmingham Childrens Trust Awareness video for Parents/Carers

The awareness video below has been sent to us by Birmingham Childrens Trust to explain how they are here to help and support any parents/carers (in the Birmingham community) who are worried about the wellbeing of their children and wish to ensure that our young people grow up in safer and better environments.

Please take a moment to watch and listen to this powerful message.
