Tuesday 17th January
All schools and nurseries closed again due to adverse weather. Hope you all managed to have a bit of fun in the sun and snow today. Do share photos through Teams. First time I’ve seen snow like this for several years so couldn’t resist a walk- but it was cold! Keep warm and take care if you do have to travel.
Monday 16th January 2023 – All Schools Closed
Good Morning,

Please keep an eye on the local press/Facebook etc. for any further updates over the coming days. For now, hock out the sledges!

Planned Industrial Action – Tuesday 10th January
Dear Parents and Carers,
As you are now aware, industrial action is planned again by the teaching unions for next Tuesday 10th January. If this goes ahead as planned, the School will be closed for primary aged pupils, however the Early Years Nursery will be open as normal.
Also NOOSC will be open 9am to 4.30pm on Tuesday 10th to offer childcare for any primary age child who may need it. Please complete the booking form if you would like your child to attend.
https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/10thJanNOOSC/. If NOOSC is open all day Tuesday 10th this means it will not be open on the following Friday 13th Jan after school.
If the industrial action does NOT go ahead then NOOSC will revert to normal hours.
Kind regards,
Gina Finch
