ILLNESS IN SCHOOL I am sure you know of someone who has been absent from school in recent days with sickness and stomach upsets. I also have three members of staff who are quite poorly at the moment; it seems that this particular virus is quite contagious. SPORTS EVENING My apologies that we had to cancel the Sports Evening due to be held today - the weather is so unpredictable at the moment that we had to make a decision yesterday based on the latest information we had available. As the day progressed we had sunshine, a thunderstorm, a power cut, then more sunshine! Looking in our school diary, there is a possibility that we can still hold the event in the last full week of term (week beginning 9th July), despite my fears that we would have to simply cancel the event altogether. The children and staff have been working very hard to prepare for the event, it is a real shame to have cancel it. We will let you know our plan in the coming days.
