WINGS NEWSLETTER Vol 15, Term Two, Week Five, 29 May 2020
Dear ACG Sunderland Community I cannot remember the last time we had consecutive days of rain – I think that is because it has not occurred this year. Well it happened this week and, on the whole, we have been impressed with lunchtime behaviour of the students. Hopefully, the weekend will be drier, and families will be able to enjoy the increased opportunities in Alert Level 2 with the larger group sizing. Please also note that Monday 1st June and Tuesday 2nd June are holidays, and therefore, students are expected back to school on Wednesday 3rd June. Thank you for respecting the Covid-19 rules that we have implemented over the past number of weeks. Just a reminder: 1. Primary students’ entrance and parking is on the Preschool side of the School. College students’ entrance is on the main entrance side. 2. At present, no parents are able to enter the school. 3. If your child is unwell, they must not attend school and we strongly suggest they see a doctor. 4. Junior Primary classes exit the school at 3.00pm and Upper Primary (Year Four to Year Six) exit the school at the normal time at 3.10pm. Unfortunately, I have received a complaint from across the road. Apparently, parents are parking in the ‘Drivesure Vehicle Testing’ entrance way, blocking people/clients from entering their business. I do ask everyone to respect our neighbours and the road rules too.
OPEN DAY – SATURDAY 20 JUNE – 10.30AM TO 2.30PM

Also, on both exits of our driveways, there are signs requesting drivers to ‘Turn left Only’. Please respect the signs, and the staff who are on duty.
Just a reminder that examinations begin on Tuesday 9th June for all students in Year Five to Year Thirteen. This coming weekend will be an opportunity for students to continue with their revision programme and consolidate the learning that has taken place, particularly during the lockdown period. Sports is beginning again in both the College and Primary. Your coaches and managers will be in touch to explain how ACG Sunderland is proceeding. I have included our Alert Level 2 ‘Play it Safe’ document as a reference in this Newsletter. Thank you again for your support over this challenging period – it has been much appreciated. Have a wonderful long weekend.
Aspire. Succeed. Respect.
