Entry and exit will only be through the Main School Entrance. Please be aware that once your child is handed over to you at dismissal, they are your responsibility.

Unfortunately, children in After School will not be able to attend as they will need a parent or guardian to be with them.  

Please also note the impact on Co-Curricular activities that day.

  • Choir has been cancelled
  • Art Club for Year 5 has been cancelled
  • Secret Agent Club will still be running 
  • Didi Rugby will still be running 

Please do let the club leader know if they are not going to attend a club and also their form tutor, so that on the day we know where they need to go.

I am sure it will be a great event and we look forward to seeing you.
