Drayton Park and the Coronavirus Pandemic

Although the coronavirus pandemic is over, the disease is still with us. Advice on how to deal with coronavirus now is available from the NHS.

 

We would like to extend our deepest condolences to all members of our community who were adversely affected during the coronavirus pandemic. Staff and families suffered bereavement, physical deprivation and mental distress. However, we also pulled together as the remarkable community we are to support, care and work for each other. Staff, parents, children and local volunteers all helped. We know so many stories of individual grit and commitment. We are very grateful. Thank you.

 

During the first national lockdown in spring 2020, we were required to maintain a school-based education and childcare service for vulnerable children and the children of critical workers. We were in federation at the time, with Montem Primary School. We ended up bringing our two communities of vulnerable and key worker children together on Montem's site. We ended up taking on children from a third school, Pakeman Primary, who needed our support. Together, we called ourselves the ‘Edventure School’.

 

We made the following video, with the children of Edventure school, to memorialise the experience.
