We do allow hats to be worn please have your child’s name labeled in it.

Decisions about closing the school or sending children home early will not be taken lightly. We will always endeavour to keep the school open when we are safely able to do so.
In the event of snow or bad weather, a decision will be made by the Head Teacher as to whether the school will remain open or will close.
Severe weather overnight
If a decision is made not to open the school then this will be communicated to parents in the following ways:
- as a text message and email message
- Via the school website or Dojo

- We will post information on the school website or Dojo.
