Current weather conditions are worse than initial forecasts predicted.  However, our current advice to parents and carers is that children and staff are safest to remain in their schools.

We do not recommend that either staff or children should travel by vehicles at this point in time. Read more about ELC UPDATE: MONDAY 11 AM
