Taking the pupils and parents on a journey of what a new school day will look like, the video explains how the school layout has changed, where washing and hand sanitiser facilities will be made available and the requirements that will be expected from all children.
Incorporating a catchy song written by pupils and staff which stresses the sentiment of ‘working together as one community’, the five-minute clip has been produced to alleviate any worries that pupils may have about returning to school.

“I’m very much looking forward to seeing our pupils return in September and I hope that the pupils who have remained in school have shown that pupil safety is of the highest importance to us and that we will be supporting each child in the transition back to the classroom.”
Thornhill Junior and Infant School operates as part of Focus Trust – a charitable multi-academy trust which is based in the North West of England with a vision of providing an engaging and challenging learning environment where the children are happy.
