Dear parents, carers and students.

Regrettably, the news from Anglian Water is not positive and they are unable to guarantee that the water supply will be restored to the School in time for us to begin lessons tomorrow. Therefore, School will be closed on Friday 5th September. We will not be using remote learning. I fully anticipate that school will return as normal on Monday 8th September. Unless you hear otherwise from me on Sunday 7th, please assume this to be the case. On Monday 8th September, we know that there will still be road closures given the level of damage that has been caused by the multiple burst water mains. At the moment, this means Haverfield Road, Winsover Road and the area next to Aldi but parents/carers are advised to check for road closures before they travel and are respectfully asked to not drop off/collect close to the School grounds given the congestion we are expecting due to the diversion of the school buses. This means that the bus arrangements given in my letter of 3rd September remain in place.
Thank for your continued support.
Mrs Anderson
Executive Headteacher
