As for previous alerts, we intend to communicate with parents via text, website, email and/or social media IF the decision is made to close the school for any reason.
As we are expecting cold, snowy, icy conditions later this week, please remember to prioritise safety, to leave extra time for all journeys and to remember to leave extra space between vehicles and between vehicles and pedestrians. If at all possible, walk to school rather than driving on such mornings, assuming it is safe to travel at all.
Snow is not a reason to stop children playing outside so, unless there is another reason to keep us inside on snowy days, we will be taking the children outside to play, either at play time or in smaller groups during class time. Please make sure that your child brings the appropriate clothing with them to school. There is such joy to be had playing in the snow and we want ALL children to experience that fun with their friends! Children with asthma should make sure to wear a scarf so that the air is warmed before entering their lungs.
