SCHOOL CLOSURE

25th January 2024

This morning we arrived at school to find we have a major issue with toilets, sewage and drains, due to the unprecedented weather this week. Despite our best efforts we do need external companies to come in and do a full drain clearance and re-set.
Therefore, I am closing school from today and we will reopen on Monday 29 January 2024. All students will have some online work set for tomorrow FRIDAY 26 January 2024. a
Any GCSE Mocks will be paused and re-scheduled for next week.
The planned Parents options evening for this evening,  will be rescheduled for  THURSDAY Feb 8th 2024.
I am in the process of contacting the school bus companies to see when they are able to do a return run today.
If you are able to collect your child please do.
If your child lives locally and can walk home, please email  admin@wensleydaleschool.net to let us know. I am trying to keep the phone lines clear to deal with emergency calls.
If you are unable to collect your child or do not give us permission to walk home, I will have staff in school until the end of the day to supervise and set work. We do at the moment have 3 serviceable toilets.
Many thanks for cooperation and I will of course keep you updated.
