School Reopening Thursday and Friday

School will be open Thursday, August18th and Friday, August 19th.

The school grounds continue to be quite hazardous, however large quantities of snow have been moved today to ensure there are paths to access all buildings.

Due to the continued road hazards and the possibility of freezing conditions we will not be opening school until 10:30am for the remainder of the week.  Please do not bring your children to school before10:30am. 

Students are asked to wear their gumboots as the grounds are quite wet and slushy.

Have a look at these great snow photos taken by the McKay family. 

Can you guess where they were taken?

School Will Be Closed Wednesday, August 17th

School will unfortunately be closed again on Wednesday, August 17th as there is still a lot of snow and sludge on the ground and if this freezes overnight conditions in the morning could be treacherous.

Staff will be in at school later in the day clearing snow from paths, ramps, etc. so that hopefully it will be safe enough to reopen on Thursday.

Snow Closes School Again Today - Tuesday, August 16th

If any of you have snow photos you would like to have put on the blog

If you are bored today write a poem for me about the snow.
Fill in the ideas sheet first, then go to the web link to get ideas about the type of poem to write.
I will look forward to seeing your poems when we get back to school.
It could be worth a Woollabuck if its a great one!
