VIRTUE TO LIVE BY: RESPECT AND COURTESY
Our new Virtue to live by:
I show courtesy to everyone as we are all made in God’s image and likeness.
A reading from the Book of Genesis
God created man and woman. God created them to be like God. They could know and love God. They could
know and love one another. God blessed them.
Let us try to show courtesy to everyone we meet this week.
St Matthew’s Catholic Primary School

Thank you for your support again this week. Please remember to wear a mask when you are on school grounds or near to the school gates – thank you!
Please remember that Bradford is still under restrictions.
You must not:
meet people you do not live with inside a private home or garden, except where you have formed a support bubble (or for other limited exemptions to be specified in law)
visit someone else’s home or garden even if they live outside of the affected areas
If someone in your household has symptoms, they must get a test and your child must not come to school until the results are known. If it is a positive test, your child must stay at home for 14 days.
ATTENDANCE
HOLIDAYS: Holidays will not be authorised during term time and you will be fined unless there are exceptional circumstances.
NURSERY PLACES: If you know a family whose child will be three years old in the next few months, please direct them to our office to pick up an application form.
PARKING: With the staggered start and pick up times, there is plenty of space in the car park opposite school. Please do not park on the pavement.
WEDNESDAY WORD: You will find the Wednesday Word on our school website. Go into Learning and RE. It is a wonderful resource to share as a family, especially as you may not be able to attend Mass at the moment due to the limit on numbers.
