Monday, 11th January to Friday, 15th January 2010
The forecast for the next ten days indicates that there is likely to be more snow and freezing temperatures. I have completed a risk assessment and decided that we will endeavour to remain open next week. However, to allow time for staff and children to get safely to and from school in these conditions we will have reduced school session times. School will open at 9.30 a.m. and close at 2.00 p.m. each day unless the weather significantly changes, in which case we will update this information.
In the event that we do need to close school we will put information on local radio, the school website at www.staugustinesprimary.org and Gateshead LA website: www.gateshead.gov.uk, then go to 'Severe Weather' page so please do check.
