Dear Families,
Dear Families,
Our new Reception and Nursery Building reached an exciting milestone last week, with the roof structure now taking shape. I had the chance to visit the site and walk through what will soon become a vibrant space for learning, discovery, and early exploration for our youngest children and the Ducklings Nursery. The project remains firmly on schedule, with construction due to finish in June and the final handover planned for July.
Across the school, from Reception right through to Year 6, it has been inspiring to see the commitment and curiosity that pupils are bringing to their learning as we reach the midpoint of the year. Classrooms are full of focused, enthusiastic children who are making impressive progress in their reading, writing, and wider curriculum studies. Their growing confidence, independence, and pride in their achievements shine through daily, and it is a joy to see how much they have already accomplished.
Warmest regards,
Nicola O’Hare
Head Teacher

Polite Reminder to Parents
Polite Reminder to Parents
We kindly ask parents not to park on the grass alongside the pavement on the route from school towards Dawes Lane. Unfortunately, this area has recently been damaged by deep tyre tracks.
Please note that this grass verge is owned by the Parish Council and is not public land, so we must ensure it is treated with care.
Thank you for your support in helping us look after our local environment.
Cold Weather School Closure Procedures
Cold Weather School Closure Procedures
The school’s priority during severe weather is the safety of pupils, staff, and families. Decisions about closing the school are made carefully, taking into account road safety and emergency access, conditions on the school site, staffing levels, travel risks for families, and advice from local authorities and emergency services.
The Headteacher will decide on school closure as soon as possible (by 7:00am or the night before if conditions are clear) and inform parents/carers via the Arbor school messaging system.
What parents need to know
Severe weather may lead to later start times or early finishes. This will be communicated in advance via Arbor.
Breakfast club, after‑school club, and external clubs are cancelled during closures, so families should have alternative childcare plans ready.
Home learning will be provided through Google Classroom (Year 1 to Year 6). Children will meet with the teacher online via Google Meet at 9am. The teacher will set learning tasks to be completed through the day.
Please allow time for messages to come through before calling the school.
Phone calls may not be answered if staff cannot reach the building, though an out‑of‑hours voicemail is available.
Final note
The school will only close when it is not safe or practical to remain open. Every closure decision is made with great care.
