Weekly Bulletin

Monday 01 March 2010

Fitness Suite
The workers will be arriving to set up their site, to begin building our Fitness Suite, on Monday 1st March. The work will not be finished until the start of the new session in August.
This will mean that the Fire Exit from the English corridor will be out of bounds from now until August.
Only the workmen will be allowed to use it – unless of course, there is a Fire or a Fire Drill.
Pupils should not use it to enter or leave the school. In addition, pupils should avoid using the English Corridor and go by way of the Social Subjects Corridor instead.
