Just to make parents aware that the Primary 1/2 trip to the Lerwick Observatory has been cancelled for health and safety reasons.  The site is very snowy and icy and the staff feel it is safer to postpone rather than go ahead.

Apologies for the last minute information but discussions have been going on and weather dependent.  We hope to rearrange this trip and will inform you in due course as to when it will be.

Mrs Inkster

All Schools and Early Year Settings are closed today due to the snowy conditions.

Please keep an eye out for further updates for tomorrow.
