As a school, nothing is more important to us than our children and staff's safety and well-being. The same is true of all the schools in our community.
As such, St Matthew’s alongside six other primary schools in BD5, have made the decision to work together on our plan to re-open our community's schools.
The staff from St Matthew’s have a special message to everyone in our community.

![]() No one Told the Sunshine! As I looked out of my bedroom window this morning a thought came into my mind "No one told the sunshine!" Over the last few weeks my own anxiety and mood has been a roller-coaster, with more downs than ups. I hit what I refer to as 'the wall' the day before yesterday, which is something I hit in times of trouble before I reach acceptance. It involves tears, an external out pouring of my anxiety and low mood - which is unfortunately contagious to others - and then I usually make a psychological shift towards acceptance.
