Dear parents / carers
As you are aware, we have been monitoring closely the extreme weather forecast for Monday and Tuesday. The MET Office has now upgraded the 'Amber' weather warning for our area to 'Red'.
Having reviewed the activities planned both in and out of school for next week we have been forced to alter our plans significantly:
In-school activities on Wednesday and Thursday, as well as the Malvern Hills walk on Wednesday, will go ahead as planned, subject to the current weather forecast proving accurate
School will close at 12.30 on Thursday, as published in the calendar
We are hugely disappointed to have been forced to make these changes, which are in line with those made by other local schools. We very much hope that parents will understand that the decisions taken are in response to an unprecedented situation. All-time temperature records are likely to be broken on Monday and there will be no respite until Wednesday. The safety of the children is our number one concern, and we will continue to keep the situation under close review. We will contact you immediately if it becomes clear that further changes are needed for Wednesday and Thursday.
With very best wishes
Lindsey Cooke
