If you have a family member who requires additional access arrangements, please phone the office after 1.30pm this afternoon to confirm details which will allow Mr Gregory to make the necessary arrangements.
Parking
- The staff will park in the rear playground, freeing up the small car park to the left as you enter the grounds.
- Parking will only be permitted in car parking spaces. Parking outside of spaces that was such an issue last year and led to the significant reorganisation over the summer, is no longer tolerated.
