Dear Parents/Carers

I would like to start this week’s heads update by thanking you all for your kindness, understanding and support regarding the confirmed case at Glenleigh Park. I am sure, like me, you will be pleased to hear that the child is well and in good health. During these challenging times, it is so important that we all work together to keep each other safe and be considerate of each other’s feelings.

The whole team at Glenleigh have been incredible in ensuring we follow all the PHE advice as well as the government and relevant agencies guidance. As you know all our plans are regularly reviewed and adapted as the guidance changes, please be reassured we will always keep you updated and informed.

As you can see from my headline photo today was a training day for the staff and our focus was Maths Mastery – all the staff have enjoyed learning more about the 5 Big ideas in Maths Mastery and are keen to use these concepts with the children on Monday.

On Monday, we launched Maths week with our Times Tables Rockstar dress up day and Number Blocks for EYFS – the day was such a success and the excitement around Maths was magical. All week, the children have been challenging themselves to tackle tricky timetables and demonstrate their problem solving skills.

Have a safe weekend, and I look forward to seeing you all next week.
