We have been contacted by the bus company who run our travel routes to say that, due forecsted snow and ice, the latest they are happy to run the routes home this evening is 2pm. This will give adequate time to ensure that all pupils get home safely and the bus drivers can return to their depot before the worst of the waether is due to arrive. Therefore, children on buses will be sent home at or shortly after 2pm providing that we have managed to contact the parents to notify them that their child will be returning from school early. We will be phoning all parents involved and sending a general school text out as well.
As the majority of the children here are on buses we will allow children who live in the villiage or come to school by other means to be collected from 2pm at the school office in person. The school will remain open until normal closing time at 3.25pm. Please try to ensure that all children are collected by 4pm at the latest to allow staff safe travel home.
