School Opening: Important Information
Thank you to the 50 parents who turned up to help clear the paths around the school site today.  We aim to open Monday morning from 0835 although this is dependant on the overnight weather conditions; check the school web site in the morning and listen to local radio stations. There is only pedestrian access to the school. Please do not bring cars into Elson Lane or Exmouth Road as these are still iced over. Pedestrian entrances are open at the Infant school, Exmouth Road and Rydal Road (please note that the GADSAC entrance is closed). All children should come straight into the school through the main office entrance. The school kitchens are not open tomorrow and so all children need to bring a packed lunch including a drink. At the end of the day children will exit through the conservatories. There will be no clubs until further notice. Thank you for your understanding throughout this bad weather.

Yours sincerely

Celia Rich
Headteacher
