Yours sincerely
Mr Williams
Due to the weather and the very icy roads and pavements, we have decided to postpone our Christmas Presentations. Apologies for the inconvenience but the safety of pupils and staff has to be paramount.
The Christmas Presentations will be rescheduled next week. I will communicate new dates and times later on today.
Apologies for any inconvenience.
Mr Williams
We will reopen today. Please leave plenty of time for travel into school.
Public pavements have not been treated therefore take great care parking as space is very limited and coming onto the site. Please keep to designated, gritted footpaths inside the school grounds. Please could everyone use the either the main entrance or yellow junior door.
Please remember to send children into school in appropriate clothing and footwear. Wrap up warm, hats, scarves, gloves, waterproof coat etc. Also a change of footwear is needed.
Many Thanks
Mr Williams

Dropping Off and Picking Up
Please follow the guidelines below when dropping off and collecting your children:
· Allow extra time to get to school, especially if driving.
· Park safely as there is a great deal of snow is still on the road and pavements.
· There is a great deal of snow on pavements, so please take extra care. We are in the hands of the council when it comes to gritting roads and clearing pavements.
· Please use cleared paths only on school yard and access school via the main entrance and yellow doors (this includes Nursery and Reception children)
· Please remember to send children into school in appropriate clothing and footwear. Wrap up warm, hats, scarves, gloves, waterproof coat etc.

Help
If anyone is available to help clear the playground and car park of snow, please let me know as your help would be gratefully received.
Snowy weather is always disruptive and our aim is to ensure that our children’s and staff safety is paramount at all times, whilst maintaining the usual running of the school. Should any further changes be required then these will be communicated to you.
