    Dear Families,

     

    Update for Schools

    Welsh Government have announced today that all schools in Wales will be allocated two planning days at the start of the Spring Term.

    Therefore, Tuesday 4th January and Wednesday 5th January will now be closed to children.  School are now hoping to reopen to children on Thursday 6th January 2022.  We will provide further updates via our school website and via text.

    This is to allow schools to assess staffing capacity and put the necessary measures in place to support the return of learners, in light of the uncertainty regarding the impact of Omicron.  The school will also use the planning days to ensure that there are robust plans in place should we be required to move to remote learning.

    Please access the school website www.greenwayprimary.com for updates with any new developments from Welsh Government. 

    Everyone at Greenway wishes you and your family a Merry Christmas and we look forward to seeing you back at school fit and well on Thursday 6th January 2022.

    #hatehurtswales

     

    The Welsh Government is launching Hate Hurts Wales, campaign to help raise awareness and understanding of hate crime and encourage people to report it. The campaign has been developed with input from stakeholders and real experiences of prosecuted hate crime to show the harmful impact that hate crime has on individuals and our wider society.
