Emergencies and School Closures

 

In the event of any injury occurring at school we need to have an up to date list of the following:

• Home and work contact phone numbers

 

• Allergies/Medical conditions and treatment required

 

• Emergency contact phone numbers

 

• Doctor’s name and phone number

 

If the school will not be opening for the day e.g. because of flooding an announcement will be made on More FM  at approximately 7.00am and also our Facebook page. If the school is closing early, every effort will be made to notify parents/guardians before children are sent home. Children will remain at school if no arrangements can be made.

Reporting to Parents

Written reports will be sent home at the end of term 2 and 4. There will be an opportunity to meet the teacher at the beginning of Term 1. Teachers are always available to discuss progress with parents. Feel free to phone for an appointment – as Teachers are very busy before school getting ready for lessons.
