Have Your Say on South Gloucestershire Council Bus Services Have your say on South Gloucestershire Council bus services We want to know what is most important to you so we can make sure that funding is spent on the services you value the most We currently support a wide range of bus services. This includes services which are entirely funded by the council and others which are commercial services that receive top-up funding for part of the service, for instance evenings or bank holidays.. We currently support 32 bus services (correct as of June 2017), in areas where there would otherwise be no service or a more limited route/timetable. How will your feedback change what we do? It will enable us to better understand what your priorities are for public transport and help us to review our supported bus services in terms of meeting these priorities. The information will also form part of a wider Bus Strategy which will be developed as part of the West of England Combined Authority later in the year.

  • Update for Olympus Parents and Carers – 27Th May 2021
    Update for Olympus Parents and Carers – 27th May 2021 Dear Parents and Carers, As we reach the end of our first full term back in school after Lockdown 3, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your families for your support with the routines that have had to be implemented and updated as restrictions and guidelines have been changed. We have been really impressed with the way the learners in our schools have adapted to the constant changes during the past year, even though we know that some have struggled with anxiety and illness. The Department for Education’s free mental health resources for all ages are available here. If you feel that your child needs support, please contact their school. Overall infection rates have remained low this term in our schools as well as in the local community, although there was a flurry of positive cases in one school which was a reminder that we are not home and dry yet! Following a meeting with staff from the school and Public Health England, we have been asked to reiterate the following contact definitions: a close contact can be anyone who: lives in the same household as someone with COVID-19 symptoms or who has tested positive for COVID-19 has had any of the following types of contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19 with either a PCR test or LFD test (if a confirmatory PCR test is negative, provided it was taken within two days of the positive LFD, it overrides the lateral flow test and close contacts can stop self-isolating): face-to-face contact including being coughed on or having a face-to-face conversation within 1 metre been within 1 metre for 1 minute or longer without face-to-face contact been within 2 metres of someone for more than 15 minutes (either as a one-off contact or added up together over 1 day) travelled in the same vehicle or a plane.

These students have worked hard over the past school year, giving willingly of their time, with younger Tesco/Sainsbury 3 students in Years 7 and 8. It has made a significant difference to engaging students in Vouchers reading. Y11 Paired Reading 3 At the end of March, a large number of parents and students in Year 11 participated in a Ten Tors News 4 Revision Skills workshop. This was followed up in school with all Year 11 students re- ceiving training in practical revision strategies.

Everyone should be working hard on their revision. There is a rich programme of support lessons at the end of the school day, a copy of which has recently been sent home. We do expect students to attend; it is easy to have an extra day of teaching and learning by the end of the week by participating in one extra hour a day at 3.15pm. This will make a significant difference to exam success. To assist with the pressures of exams, we are working with a local yoga teacher to run relaxation sessions during PE lesson time for Year 11 students. In addition, the school library is open every day after school to support every student with their study. It was great to see so many Year 11 students with their parents/carers at our 2 recent Post 16 events. There are a wide range of courses on offer across the Cotswold Edge 6th Form, achievement is some of the best in the area and transport is free. The deadline for applications is 3rd December. On 11th November, I had the pleasure of joining the Remembrance Parade on the High Street with student representatives.

  • Update for Olympus Parents and Carers – 17Th December 2020
    Update for Olympus Parents and Carers – 17th December 2020 Dear Parents and Carers, I would like to thank you for your support through what has felt like a very long term. My colleagues and I have been very impressed with the way in which learners have adapted to the changes to arrangements in our schools and the way that many of them have taken periods of self-isolation and remote learning in their stride. We know that it is not always easy to have children based at home during the day, whether or not they needed direct supervision to complete their schoolwork. I would like to take this opportunity to wish you a peaceful and healthy break and all best wishes for the New Year – we hope that things may start to ease in the first part of 2021 as the vaccine becomes available to more people, although we recognise that January could still be challenging. I have provided information about rapid testing for Covid-19 in schools further on in this update. End of Term Arrangements As notified last week, term 2 ends for all learners at the usual time on Thursday, 17th December. Friday, 18th December is now a staff training day. We know that there were mixed views amongst Olympus parents and carers as well as staff about whether schools should have been providing remote learning or operating as normal this week and hope that you also recognise the constraints placed on us by Government regulations. On balance, we felt that bringing forward the end of term by a day when permitted to do so would slightly reduce the risk of infection and self-isolation during the school holiday.
