Car Parking

Works to create additional car parking spaces in the Leisure Centre car park and along the side of our

Sports hall will commence on Tuesday 26th June and are expected to last for 10 days. There will be

traffic lights in place for one way movement of traffic from the Community Centre to the Leisure

Centre. To avoid congestion and delays we ask that you do not use these car parks to drop off and pick

up your children but find alternatives during this period.

HOT WEATHER

You may have seen the reports last week predicting that this summer could be one of the hottest on

record. Next week the temperatures are set to rise, and predictions suggest that temperatures will reach

over 25 degrees every day next week.

Please could you ensure that your child has a water bottle – we have drinking fountains in school and will

be encouraging students to keep hydrated at all times.

Students should wear their normal school uniform to school and if temperatures do rise they will be

encouraged to remove blazers, jumpers and ties.

A number of useful publications have been produced to advise people how to Beat the Heat:
