After the lovely weather we have had of late, it was inevitable that it would break at some point - it is just unfortunate that is is breaking the week our foundation and key stage 1 sports days are planned. The weather over the next two days is very mixed with lots of rain and potential thunderstorms. We really want the children to enjoy the event, and parents and families too. The last thing we want is for the children to get wet and for them not to take part how they wanted because of the ground or the conditions.
I am hoping that the weather blows over quickly, as it often does. Today is a prime example for that.
A decision will be made if sports day will go ahead or not, at 11.30am each day and you will all be contacted. If there is a risk of rain or certainly thunderstorms are forecast, then the event will move the the reserve dates.
Thursday 6th July - KS1 New Date as trips are taking place during the week. This is the day when the least is on. Thank you for your understanding.
It is important that we give you as much notice as possible as I know many of you will be making work arrangements and some family members will be coming.
Fingers crossed it does go ahead - the children are really looking forward to it. Our student council are primed and ready to run the drink stands for spectators, so please bring some change with you to make a purchase and help us to raise money for the school environment.
No rain dances tonight please, only sunny and happy thoughts!
Mrs Gregan
