SCHOOL CAR PARK Would ALL parents/carers please note that the School Car Park MUST NOT be used as a dropping off/picking up area for children between 8.30am - 4.00pm. For Health & Safety reasons, ALL children should be walked in and out of school using the main school gate. Thank you for your understanding with this matter. SCHOOL MEALS Would all parents/carers please note that the school office MUST be advised if your child is switching from Packed Lunch to School Meals and vice–versa. Failure to do so will result in parents being charged for meals that are ordered. This applies even if your child is entitled to a Free School meal.
