Dear Parents/Carers,
 
Laptops - Thank you to all who have picked up the resource packs and Google Chromebooks. We are awaiting a delivery of Chromebooks and hope to order more from the Department for Education tomorrow. As soon as they arrive and have been marked with smart water, Miss Moran will organise distribution to those children on the waiting list.
 
Covid Infection Rate - The infection rate per 100,000 is very high for Wirral (915.1). While the rate for Liscard is lower than this, it is high (669.4). The Government has advised that where possible people should work from home and keep their children at home. Children at home should access learning online from their class  teacher or teacher in the year group. If you are struggling to access learning online please contact the school office. Thank you to those parents who are able to keep their children at home and access the remote learning. 
 
I also want to thank parents/carers whose children are attending school for getting the children to school on time. It makes a great difference to the teachers who are able to start online lessons promptly. Thank you to all our parents/carers who are key workers. We really appreciate all you are doing to keep us safe, care for our community and provide essential services.
 
Contact Phone Numbers - Please can you make sure that you get in touch with the school office if you have changed your mobile phone number. 
 
Free School Meal (FSM) Vouchers - Ms Forsyth is in the process of distributing FSM vouchers to cover last week, for those children eligible for free school meals who were not attending school. The FSM vouchers for this week (Jan 11th -15th) will be sent out on Friday 15th and every Friday that the scheme runs.
 
Best wishes,
 
Sue
