Programme Update: COVID-19 Disruption

Of our 2019-20 Enrichment programme, we’ve delivered 5 of the 13 activity days, and 2 newly created online workshops.

We’re continually assessing the situation to help us decide how and when we’ll be able to continue the programme for the children in our Stoke Park, Bishop Road and Oasis Connaught groups. We have some July activities provisionally booked and we’ll see how schools get on over the next couple of weeks then make a decision on Monday 15th June.

We may be able to deliver some of the activities that take place outside that allow for social distancing, such as BMXing and outdoor teambuilding. If it still doesn’t appear sensible to deliver our activities in July, we’ll postpone to the autumn, delivering most of the activities during October half-term 2020.

For children currently in Yr6, we’ll liaise directly with parents and will make contact with the children’s new secondary schools to ensure we’re doing all we can to deliver the final activities and support the children to build their skills – needed now, perhaps, more than ever.
