School Closure Letter 17th January 2018

16th Jan 2018

16th January 2018

Dear parents,

Having considered all factors carefully, on balance, we feel it is wiser to close tomorrow. The safety of the children and everyone associated with our school is our first priority. Several members of staff live considerable distances from school, which adds further complication in ensuring adequate cover for all classes and safety of staff. Access to our lane and back car park is also treacherous and it is uncertain if this will be any better tomorrow morning.

Thank you for your understanding. We never make these decisions lightly and fully recognise the complications of childcare that occur when the school is unavoidably closed. Nevertheless, to decide tomorrow would make it even more challenging for most families.

Stay safe,

With thanks

Pauline Fleming

Acting Principal
