Dear Parents,

Video recording of year 5/6 show 2016

We would like to make you a fantastic offer, which should hopefully help you enjoy this year’s performance and give you a memento for many years to come!

A parent has kindly offered to video both productions (bothdress rehearsals and Tuesday evening show) and then edit in order to ensure as many pupils as possible feature in the video. We would then intend to post the video onto a private, restricted YouTube channel and to give our year 5 and 6 families a link, free of charge, to that channel as well as post the on the year 6 page of our website. Restricted YouTube channels do not come up in Google searches.

This would allow parents and relations to settle back and enjoy the shows, with less need to worry about photos and videos on the evening. What’s more, children will be able to see the audience reaction rather than a sea of i-pads!

I have spoken to NYCC Legal and they confirm that this is possible but require us to have written permission from families for their child to feature in the recordings.

We therefore need EVERY family to say ‘yes’ for this to happen. Please use the reply slip below and send/email back to the Office ASAP.

I am happy to discuss this further should you have any concerns.

Kind regards,

Ian Yapp

Headteacher
