  • A shout out and thanks to our Hub workers!

    Mon 11 May 2020 C Swann

    Over the last few weeks, Mrs Spokes. Miss Deakin, Mrs Hoare, Mrs Smith and Mrs Williams have worked in the Dewstow Hub, where they have made an outstanding contribution to the country wide effort to respond to Covid 19. 

     

    They have brightened the lives of the children attending, and have of course, supported the work of our Key Workers and vulnerable pupils. 

    Once again, the leaders of the Dewstow Hub have praised our staff highly, and made particular thanks to both the leadership of Mrs Spokes and the ingenuity of Mrs Smith in helping to distract a child from feeling challenged, to feeling happy! Great team effort by everyone!

     

    Well done and thank you to you all!

  • Nice to be back!

    Mon 11 May 2020 C Swann

    It is lovely to be back in touch via the website, and apologies for not being on line over the past couple of weeks.

    As you can see, last week’s Ambassadors are up for us all to celebrate, and I am looking forward to sharing the next group of talented learners very soon!!!

    Coming soon will be further information on:

    • Use of Google Meet. This is a video meeting facility within Google Classroom that can act as an interface between staff and children to support teaching and learning
    • Updates from Monmouthshire County Council
    • What next (as far as we know it)

     

    In the mean time, take care, keep safe and thank you for your continued support in meeting the needs of our children during this time.

  • Easter Break

    Fri 03 Apr 2020 C Swann

    Dear families,

    Well!!!

    What a term it has been...not necessarily what I was expecting for my first term!

    However, I am thrilled to a part of our school community and both myself and the staff at ARW would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your ongoing support and consideration, and we would like to wish you all a very Happy Easter.

    It is time for us all to ‘step back’ from teaching for the next two weeks, particularly at home where you really are on the ‘front line’. As for as possible within this unprecedented situation, we hope that you are able to find opportunity for relaxation and quality family time.

    I have asked staff to turn off their computers for the next two weeks, so that they are refreshed and ready for the 20th April, when we return and continue with our home learning support.

    Please take care and we send you all our warmest wishes,

    Best wishes

    Caroline Swann and the ARW team
