Mackie Hill Junior and Infant School

Yesterday, Headteachers received a letter from Wakefield Council and the Public Health Team advising schools to introduce safety measures in schools. 

On our school website (see link below) you will find a copy of this letter and also my letter to parents in response to this. Unfortunately, it does mean that we will need to reintroduce some actions to help keep our children, staff and community safe.

These new measures will begin on Monday 1st November. 

Tomorrow, we have a Year 5 assembly planned. We are going to go ahead with the assembly as it is inline with the latest guidance. If parents or carers in Year 5 are coming to the assembly tomorrow they can choose to socially distance at the back of the hall and wear face coverings. We will not be insisting on these 2 measures tomorrow so we ask visitors to respect the decisions of others. 

Thank you for your continued co-operation. Mrs Elliott.
