School work for all children will be available on the school website by the end of the school day for anyone who
is self-isolating or does so in the near future. This can be accessed via your internet provider and by typing the
following into the google search bar: http://cattongrove.norfolk.sch.uk

To all Parents & Carers, please ensure that you are limiting the time you are on site and not
gathering unnecessarily in the foyer, car parks or outside classrooms.
I would like to take the opportunity to thank you for trusting us as an organisation to do what is necessary to continue to
provide the best quality of education we can in these difficult times.
Your children are a real credit to you and our school and they continue to strive to be the best they can be with
the humour and positive outlook that we all need right now.
Yours faithfully
