For breaktime at home this week we are recommending these video dance series to dance along to from the BBC. We’re hoping to find a good live daily dance and fun lesson for next week.

Dear Parents and Carers,
All libraries will close from 5pm on Thursday 19 March until further notice. No fines or room hire charges will apply during the period of closure. Your Library is always open online to borrowing ebooks, audiobooks, magazines and newspapers and access on your computer or mobile device.
Adults can join the library on line for their children and get a temporary membership for 6 months to borrow three items at a time (including ebooks, books for children and books in other languages than English etc). When the 6 months expire you need to go to the library with prof of ID to register for full membership and to register your child/ren too.
The link, with full details how to register is below:

Multilingual WhatsApp Appeal- Polish, Urdu, Arabic
The parent council have also asked us to ask if any parents can help by becoming an admin on the groups for some of these languages.
If the Polish, Arabic and Urdu parent could let the Parent Council know that they can do this admin role for the WhatsApp via the Parent Council Facebook messenger it would be much appreciated.
