Bedwas Junior School - Return to School

All children in the Junior School will be able to return to school from Monday 15th March.

All arrangements detailed in our original reopening plan will resume.

Key information –

School gates will be open at 8.30am for school to start at 8.40am.

The children will need to be dropped at their relevant gate –

• Red and Blue Class the front gate on Church Street.

• Purple and Orange Class the gate behind the canteen block on Celtic Way.

• Green and Yellow the main back gate on Celtic Way opposite Glebe Street.

The children will be dismissed from school at the end of the day at the usual time (3.10pm) from the same gates.

For the first week back Catering have requested that all pupils bring a packed lunch. They are hoping to resume school meal provision from the second week back.

Breakfast Club continues to be closed at the moment.

Orange Class will be based in the canteen whilst unavoidable building work is being completed in their classroom; the floor had to be completely replaced with additional work required on some of the walls. The canteen has been prepared and will be solely used by Orange Class for the period of the repairs as we are not allowed to use the canteen for lunches under Covid restrictions.

Drop-off and pick-up arrangements worked well in the autumn and we appreciated everyone’s co-operation. We will need to continue this as we move to our full return.
