Welcome Back!

Welcome back to Edward Worlledge Ormiston Academy for the new school year. A special welcome to any parents that are new to us, we hope you feel very welcome, and your children have settled quickly into their new classes and routines. It has been a delight to see all of the children coming through the gates with their smiling faces and smart new uniform. I have been impressed with how quickly they have adjusted to being back in school, with their new teachers and new classrooms.

Building improvements
Over the summer we had building contractors in making further improvements to the building in two areas:

• Outdoor play area – The climbing frame has been resurfaced underneath and fenced in, with a new surface added to the bottom of the new ramp. The outdoor continuous provision activities for that new area will be installed over the next few weeks.
• Heating – Our old pipes and radiators have been replaced. The original pipes ran under the building and were difficult to access if there were any issues. With the new radiators and pipes joining onto our relatively new boilers we will be nice and cosy over the winter. Air conditioning and new heating has also been added to our top floor, so we no longer get the extremes of temperatures we use to get in those classrooms.
