  Reporting Illness
  
  We’re pleased to announce that Wood Street Infant School is introducing a new, more efficient and secure system for reporting your child’s absence due to illness, called Studybugs.
  
  If you haven’t already, please get the free Studybugs app, or register on the Studybugs website, and use it to tell us whenever your child’s ill and unable to attend school.
  
  Get the app or register now (https://studybugs.com/about/parents)
  
  Top 3 reasons to use Studybugs
  1. It’s integrated with our systems so we know right away if your child is unaccounted for.
  2. It’s quick and easy to register and use and automatically reminds you to keep us posted.
  3. You’ll be helping the NHS and other public health organisations improve children’s health. (https://studybugs.com/about/schools)

• Flagship Muddy Puddle School

  Tue 26 Feb 2019

  We are very excited to have the opportunity to work with the team at The Muddy Puddle Teacher.  As a flagship school we host a number of training sessions and offer ideas, support and guidance in getting outside and teaching alongside the Muddy Puddle team. 

   

  Our flagship status came about after a visit from 'Chief Muddy Puddler' Sarah Seaman.  She said: 

  'Some schools just stand out to us and this school was one of them.  Their outdoor spaces are amazing, innovative, engaging and their efforts to connect children with nature and bring the outdoors indoors impressed us immensely.'
