Keep up to date with all the latest news from the school!
4th January 2021
Dear parents/carers,
Following the Government announcement this evening, all schools will be closed from tomorrow with the exception of children of critical workers and children deemed to be vulnerable.
After careful consideration with the Chair of Governors and other RELP schools across Exeter, I have made the decision to close the school tomorrow for one day to all children, in order to allow preparation time for the planned lockdown ahead. This includes the closure of the Bee Happy Club and Owlets nursery.
I do not take this decision lightly and I am aware that this will cause some disruption to families, but I ask for your support at this difficult time to ensure that the school team is well prepared to provide the best provision for all families with effect from Wednesday 6th January.
A letter will be sent out first thing tomorrow morning detailing the criteria for critical worker and vulnerable child places. Places will be allocated throughout the course of the day and will be informed by 5pm.
All children who will be learning from home will receive a full programme for remote learning. This will take commence on Wednesday 6th January. More details to follow.
Thank you for your continued support during these uncertain times. Our Trinity family and community are in our thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.
Yours sincerely
Owen Wilder
Headteacher

Here's a little checklist to help you along:
All uniform clearly labelled?
Have you ordered your school lunches for the first week back - deadline is 31st August?
If applicable do you know the date and time of your child's stay and play or meet the teacher session?
Have you booked your wrap around care with our BRAND NEW 'Bee Happy Club'? https://www.trinityprimaryexeter.co.uk/breakfast-and-after-school-club/
There is lot of information on our website whilst we are still 'out of the office' or drop us an email at admin@trinityprimaryexeter.co.uk and we'll get back to you when we can.
We wanted to let you know about the launch of Sustrans Outside In, a free resource to help parents who are looking after their children at home.
Walking, cycling and scooting are great ways to keep active and healthy in body and mind. During this time where we are mostly required to stay at home, these activities become harder to do.
Sustrans Outside In provides fun ideas and inspiration for parents to bring education, health and wellbeing activities into their home.
Parents can access resources by registering for the free parent newsletter. Over four weeks, you'll receive weekly videos, themed activities, games and challenges designed by our experienced school officers.
Head here for more details: www.sustrans.org.uk/OutsideIn
Head over to the Home Learning page to view our lovely staff video to the Trinity children.
Stay safe and well.
Our new Home Learning page is now live on our school website. Useful ideas and resources will be added here as we receive them - please take the time to have a look at these.
