We are very much looking forward to greeting the parents of our 'New Starters' on Thursday Evening at 6pm on the 10th June.

In the meantime we found this website that has lots of tips in one place that are pretty good!

To be taken to the interactive website click here.

This website also allows you to click on highlighted key phrases and  words and taking you to a new tab that goes into more detail when you want something explained further.

See you soon

Mrs Lindley

Dear Parents,

We are delighted that you have chosen to send your child to Keyworth Primary and Nursery School and look forward to working with you over the coming months to ensure your child has the best possible start to school life. Whether this is your first child joining Keyworth, or you have had other children pass through our school, we know how important it is that you get all the information you need to prepare for school life.

The current coronavirus situation means our transition will need to be different this year - we typically arrange pupil visits and parents' meetings to share information and help you and your child get a feel for life at Keyworth. As such, the meetings we had planned for this will not go ahead. However, we will be sharing information and contacting you over the next week or so in a range of different ways:

• If your child is just starting school they will be starting in the Foundation Unit.
• There is an email address for you to contact the Foundation staff and they will endeavour to answer any questions you may have - eyfsteam@keyworth.notts.sch.uk 
• Mrs Lindley, Mrs Gerrard or Mrs Boon will be contacting you by phone to touch base and get to know you and your child a little better. If you are new to the school, you can arrange an appointment to come and see the school and meet the team in person. At the moment we do these after main school hours to reduce contact with other adults and children (In line with Covid restrictions)
• Mrs Buttery in the office will be contacting you about issues linked to administration (Please complete the pupil data form she has sent previously if you haven't done so already)
• We frequently update the school website, so have a browse if you have time and would like to learn more about the school.

I'm sure you understand that the government's guidelines  for schools at the moment means that our usual procedures for welcoming you and your children into their new school are a little different . We are very hopeful that things will return to normal in time for the new school year.

Please let us know us if there are any adjustments we need to make to support you as we plan for September. We hope you and your child will enjoy your years at Keyworth Primary, and we would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to our ‘family’!

Kind regards,

Mr Cresswell

In the Foundation unit we like families to get involved. This year has been particularly challenging due to all of the COVID retsrictions.

When things finally get back to normal we will be starting Welcome Wednesdays!

We will let you know as soon as they are starting again.

They will be held every Wednesday morning for about 30-40 minutes and family members who can attend will be invited to come and join us for an activity or visit. Grandparents, siblings are all welcome to come and join us at this time and feel part of the school.
