Week 26 (14-18 February 2022)

From the Headteacher

This is just a very brief newsletter for the half-term break.

Due to falling COVID cases, we are returning to the position where the use of a face covering at school becomes one of personal choice from next week.

We return to school after half-term at the normal time on Monday 21 February.
