The school will be closed on Tuesday 21st.
The snow that has fallen to date (Monday) coupled with the predictions in the six-one-news weather forecast for continued snow showers, freezing overnight temperatures, further snow early tomorrow and no thaw tomorrow means that the BOM consider it unwise to open from a Health and Safety perspective. We regret the inconvenience this causes and thank you for your continued support and patience.
Teachers are reminded of end of term deadlines for termly records, monthly records, short-term planning schema, long-term planning schema, assessment files and policy/practice evaluations.
We really hope that we will be able to open Wednesday and Thursday and proceed with our Winter Concerts as planned. Please continue to check out this blog.
We would love to see the Winter concerts go ahead on Thursday. Since conditions look like they will still be bad how about starting at 10am and finishing 1pm.
Thamks for the updates and the text you have been sending us regarding school closure.
All in this house really looking forward to the Winter Concerts! We can brave the snow! Video cameras at the ready….
