Should we have awful weather over the Christmas and New Year break I thought that it was worthwhile letting you know about what we do in case the weather is still inclement when we return to school.

We aim to always be open if at all possible. If the weather was so severe that the staff couldn’t get in to school and we had to close the school, I would notify the local radio station. So, please listen to Essex Radio or SGR Colchester and or SGR Ipswich. If our school’s name doesn’t appear we’ll be open.

I have recently been asked what the school’s policy is on when children wear boots of any kind to school. If your child needs to wear boots to school they will need to bring their school shoes to change into. Could I please suggest that should your child wear boots to school, that the boots are clearly labelled with your child’s name and that they bring a peg or a bag to keep the boots safe.

Many thanks for your help in this matter.

Yours sincerely,

Mrs H Tetchner
Headmistress
