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

All Schools and ELC settings to remain closed on Thursday 15th Dec.
Schools and early learning settings in Shetland will remain closed tomorrow, Thursday 15 December, with the continued wintry weather conditions and power supply problems.
With temperatures forecast to fall below freezing tonight, uncertainty over access to side roads for school transport across Shetland and the ongoing disruption of power supply across the islands, the decision has been taken for schools and early learning settings to stay closed tomorrow, for the safety of pupils and staff. Fair Isle Primary School will, however, remain open.
The Eric Gray Centre at Seafield will also close tomorrow.
