End of day arrangements

As a reminder, we will only be opening the Castle Lane gate at 3:20pm for parents picking up at the end of the day from school. The main road gate, where Mr P. will be, will be open from 3:15pm. Playgroup pickups for 3pm will be unaffected.

Building update

Due to factors beyond our control, there has been a deadline to the completion of the building work outside Rowan Class. We are now expecting it to be completed ready for the children to use on Friday next week.

Health Guidance

The Chief Medical Officer (CMO), Professor Chris Whitty, and leading health professionals have written to schools, asking that we share NHS guidance with parents to remind you that children can attend school with minor coughs and colds, provided they do not have a fever. The guidance can be found by clicking this link:
