We are removing quite a lot of the lockers through the school as most are not used.

If you have a locker please empty this by  next Friday 28 March 2025 at latest and hand your key to the office. Once the re-shuffle has taken place you can get a new locker and locker key (this will only take a few weeks). If you don’t empty your locker by next Friday you will risk losing whatever is inside it.

Thank you

Ms Cook
