Winter Weather
As you are probably aware the forecast is for colder weather to arrive this week and into next week. Whilst at this stage significant snowfall is not expected in this part of the country,we thought it would be a good opportunity to clarify our Severe Weather policy.
The school will make every effort to remain open during any severe weather, however there may be an occasion when conditions mean we are forced to close the school.
Should this occur the following procedure will be followed:
We will send out a text message & app notification to all parents notifying of the school closure for that day. The decision regarding the school’s ability to open will be made no later than 8.15am.
Please note a text will only be sent out in the event of school closure, one will not be sent to confirm the school is open, however a message will be placed on the school website to confirm the school is open on the app, website, Facebook and Twitter feed (@grays_farm). All subsequent updates will be posted to the school website, app and on the school’s Facebook & Twitter feed (@grays_farm).
In the event of the school being closed for a second consecutive day there will be a notice placed on the school’s website, app, Facebook and Twitter feed (@grays_farm). Please note that there will be no text on the second day if there is another enforced closure, therefore it is vital that you check the website before leaving for the school. The same procedure will follow in the event of a third day closure etc.
