Welcome Message
On behalf of our school community I would like to extend a very warm welcome to Mereside CE Primary Academy website. We really value the partnership between home and school and see your child's learning journey through their time with us as a joint venture between you and all members of staff here at our school. At our school we believe that all of our children can achieve highly and become valued members of society. They are our future and therefore together we must provide a strong foundation on which they can build.
This half term we are using materials for our class worship kindly provided by the Diocese of Lichfield. They pick up on a different Christian Value each week but all link back to the idea that we are all unique and that everyone deserves our respect. Miss Hamer has kindly created home learning versions so those of you remote learning can join in with worship at home. I will also be continuing with Friday Celebration Worship.
1 Peter 2:17 " Show proper respect to everyone."
LOCKDOWN IS NOT OVER - Please continue to maintain social distancing. Do not mix with other households. Children should not be starting play dates- only mix with people in your bubble. YOU MUST CONTINUE TO FOLLOW GOVERNMENT GUIDELINES
The Duke of Edinburgh 1921 - 2021
On 9 April 2021 Buckingham Palace announced the death of His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh. From this date, a period of national mourning began and will continue for 8 days until the morning of the funeral.
Mereside Primary Academy are deeply saddened to hear of the death of HRH The Duke of Edinburgh today. Our thoughts are with HM The Queen and the Royal Family at this difficult time.
There is no doubt that his devotion to H.M The Queen was an enduring source of strength and comfort. We would like to offer our deepest condolences to all members of the Royal Family. His legacy and dedication to duty will not be forgotten

Members of the public can now sign the national online Condolence Book at The Royal Family website here: https://www.royal.uk/
