Hi everyone! Not only is it Friday today, believe it or not it’s also officially the last day of this half term! This week we have the usual birthday shout-outs and Mr Gardiner quizzes Mr Palmer on some Mental Health statistics in recognition of #MentalHealthAwarenessweek. Keep safe everybody, we miss you! The answers to last week's questions are 17 1/2 ( or 17 2/4) and the co-ordinating conjunction was 'or'.

We have further information for all families regarding the potential wider re-opening of school and at this point would like to share our outline plans. A letter from our Headteacher and Chair of Governors can be seen below alongside information from the York Schools and Academies Board who represent all schools in York. It is important to remember that all plans regarding school opening are subject to updated government guidance expected on Thursday 28th May. The documents below are also available on our school website (www.cliftongreenprimary.co.uk) and have been sent to families via Weduc, Parent Pay and Tapestry. We apologise if you receive this information more than once but we want to make sure that we reach as many of you as possible. As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact school on 555105 or Facebook/email.

This week is Mental Health Awareness Week and this year’s theme is kindness. Mrs Boyne is reading one of her favourite stories which is all about being kind. It would be lovely if everyone at home could try and do something extra kind this week; whether that is doing jobs to help your family, saying thank you to a loved one, or doing something to be kind to yourself...such as writing a list of all your strengths or maybe taking the time to do an activity you enjoy. Being kind not only makes others feel good it makes you feel good too!

Even though school isn't operating as normal, please remember we are here for you. Contact a member of the team on 555105, email us or send a private Facebook message. Finally, remember to look out for Miss Boyne reading, 'We're All Wonders' by R. J.
