School Closing In Bad Weather

At last school is back to ‘normal’ after the atrocious weather conditions last week. The decision to close school on Thursday was not taken lightly. It was felt that because of the predicted weather forecast for Wednesday Evening and Thursday some of our teaching staff and children would not be able to make it into school. When we came back on Friday a lot of staff got stuck in the snow outside school! I would like to thank parents for their patience and understanding. Should we be faced with this situation again information will be posted here on our blog as soon as we have it.
Updated Messages will also be left on our school answerphone.

During this weather when children are wearing their wellingtons and boots to come to school, can I ask that children bring their school shoes to change into.

Thank you.
Mrs Alison Miller

PE Kits

Can I once again remind parents that PE Kits must be brought into school each Monday. There are still a number of children who are coming to school without their kit. Parents will be contacted should their child not have their kit in school with them.


Thank you for your co-operation in this matter.
