Foundation Phase return

Dear Parent/Guardian, 

As of this morning we have received confirmation that Foundation Phase pupils in Wrexham will commence phasing back into school from Friday 26th February. Within the Bryn Alyn cluster it has been agreed that schools will phase back for Nursery pupils (Barn Owls) only on Friday 26th February with the rest of the Foundation Phase (Snowy Owls, Kestrels and Harriers) returning as usual on Monday 1st March.  

We will keep the same staggered times as prior to Christmas and pupils will enter and exit via the same doors. Please see the tables below for more information. 

Class Start time Finish time 
Barn Owls 8.50-9am 11.30am 
Snowy Owls 8.40-8.50am 3pm 
Harriers 8.40-8.50am 3pm 
Kestrels 8.50-9am 3.10pm 
Class Entrance 
Barn Owls Class entrance into cloakroom 
Snowy Owls Class entrance into cloakroom 
Harriers Entrance by Home Bargains stairs 
Kestrels Entrance by Home Bargains stairs 

Please note it will be expected for all visitors on site (with the exception of pupils) to wear a mask, unless there are medical reasons for not doing so. 

Breakfast club will continue to be provided and charged as usual- We ask that all pupils requiring breakfast club are booked in to allow for maximum numbers to be adhered to. We also politely request that the provision is only used if needed. Prior to Christmas we were working within our maximum number – Should this go up we may have to limit the number of pupils who can use this facility. 

Please book for breakfast club via the school office (preferably by email). 

For those that require the use of Playmates please book using the normal communication avenues. 

From Monday 1st of March we will cater for school meals. Those who are free school meals will be required to pay until the government money has stopped being paid directly to the family. 

Finally, although Friday 26th February will only see the Barn Owls returning, Foundation Phase staff in Snowy Owls, Kestrels and Harriers will be using this day as a Planning and Preparation day and will not be available for online learning. Thank you for your understanding. 

And a big THANK YOU for your help and support over this time. We look forward to welcoming back the Foundation Phase pupils by Monday and, hopefully, the Key Stage 2 pupils shortly. 

Kind regards, 

Mr J Moore
