Dear Parents,

 

You may be aware that the number of positive cases of Covid in schools has started to increase.

 

In some of these cases the children were asymptomatic, so showing no symptoms, which means they could be in school and infectious. 

 

Fortunately, some of the cases were picked up before the children came to school through routine LFD tests which their parents were carrying out on them. So, I would like to encourage as many of you as possible to carry out LFD tests on your children so that when they come into school we know they are not infectious. 

 

This also helps keep your family safe too, as you will then know that you are safe to mix with other family members. It is getting near to Christmas and I want everyone to have a good break and not be ill during their holidays, so if we all try to keep each other safe that would be greatly appreciated.

 

With best wishes and stay safe,

 

Mrs Sheila Pape

Executive Headteacher

Christmas Newsletter 2021

Further to our Christmas Events update on 16th November, the decision has been made to cancel the Junior Open Afternoon on Monday 13th December and the Carols Around The Tree evening on 16th December.

Spots for Spotlight Day

Spotlight UK is a Basingstoke charity that provides support to children and young people to reach their full potential. Part of their work is to relieve financial hardship by providing families with equipment and food parcels that they could not otherwise afford through lack of means. Lots of families, across The South View Federation, have benefitted from their support over the years.

 

Last year, Spotlight UK provided over 3000 Christmas presents, 400 food hampers, 180 family Christmas dinners and 300 Christmas Stockings for local residents. Due to Covid-19 and subsequent job losses, demand for support, this Christmas, is high.

 

To raise some money for Spotlight, we are having a ‘Spots for Spotlight’ day at The South View Federation.

 

On Friday 26th November, please dress in your spottiest clothes. All we ask for is a donation of 50p per child to donate to Spotlight UK to help towards their fantastic support this Christmas.

 

We look forward to seeing lots of children dressed in spotty outfits.

Dear Parents,

 

Due to there still being a high number of cases of Covid in the local community, I have taken the decision to video the Christmas Performances, at both schools, and share them on-line as we did last year. It is sad that we are unable to invite parents in, but the risks of so many people being in one place is too high. However, we did have a lot of parents comment on how good it was to have the performances on-line as they could then share them with other family members, some on the other side of the world, whereas normally only 2 adults could attend. 

 

Sadly, we are also cancelling the Junior School Cake Sale and the Infant School Christmas Fair.  The risks of Covid transmission are high as these are both very busy and crowded events. I am sure you understand we just want to keep everyone safe.

 

However, we are hoping to continue with Christmas Workshops and still invite parents in. The invites will require you to book your place so that we can monitor numbers and make the necessary arrangements to be as Covid Safe as we can be.

 

Planned activities for the children will still continue including their parties, Christmas Jumper Day and Christmas Lunches.

 

A decision will be made about Open Afternoons and the Carol Service, nearer the time.

 

It is frustrating that we are still not able to return to Pre Covid arrangements but I do feel we are moving in the right direction by being able to hold some of the events which were not possible at all last year.

 

Stay safe,

 

Mrs Sheila Pape

Executive Headteacher

This year, for Children in Need, we are taking part in Joe Wicks’ Big Morning Move on Friday 12^th November 2021.

 

Children can come to school dressed in yellow, spotty or Pudsey themed sportswear so we can join in with Joe - live via his YouTube channel. The clothes they wear need to be practical for exercising.

 

All we ask is for a donation of 50p which will go to raise funds for Children in Need.

 

We look forward to seeing your outfits!

Due to absences, Christmas cards can now be ordered until midnight on 2nd  November.

 

If you have placed an order, please return your child's artwork to school by 3rd November 2021.

 

Thank you.

Squid Game is a Korean drama series on Netflix that has become one of the most popular topics on the internet for its unique plot. The show mimics children’s games however it ends with participants being violently killed if they lose.

 

There have been some concerning reports recently about children and young people ‘playing’ Squid Game whilst at school. Squid Game is also being viewed via other platforms such as YouTube and Tik-Tok, and given the popularity of the games in the show, developers have made various mini-games based on Squid Game on Roblox and other gaming platforms.

Parents are advised to be vigilant about what children and young people are accessing and make sure the content is appropriate. Parental controls are available on apps/websites and can help keep children safe.
