Dear Parents, In her essay, “The Pandemic is a Portal”, Indian novelist, Arundhati Roy, invites us to see the current moment as a turning point in history, as a moment of change, she writes: “Coronavirus has brought the world to a halt like nothing else could. Our minds are still racing back and forth, longing for a return to normality, Refusing to acknowledge the rupture, but the rupture exists, and in the midst of this terrible despair, it gives us a chance to rethink. Nothing could be worse than a return to normality. Historically, pandemics have forced humans to break with their past and imagine their world anew. This one is no different. It is a portal. A gateway between one world and the next.”

Please find in this week’s update more information from our Community Coordinator, Mrs Tracey Brownrigg about how we are working with our community partners at this time. Thank you to all of our students, parents, teachers and support staff for your generous contributions.
