• Tuesday 9th February

  Mon 08 Feb 2021

   

  Good evening everybody,
  
  I have completed a risk assessment on our school site today and Andy, our caretaker, has worked hard to clear pathways so that it is accessible.
  
  To support our families that are critical workers, enabling parentsto go to work, we will be able to open on Tuesday 9th February.
  
  Please bear in mind however that we will be operating on a skeleton staff so if you are able to keep your child safely at home with you, then this will be the best option.
  
  Remote learning for all classes will resume tomorrow and so all pupils can access learning opportunities from home.
  
  For those children that need to attend, and can get to school safely, then our gates will open at 8.30am as usual. Nursery will also be open for all children to attend.
  
  Road conditions leading to the school are still hazardous and further heavy snowfall is expected overnight. Should this lead to conditions deteriorating then I may need to close the school at short notice in the morning.
  
  It is a difficult job to try and balance the need to remain open to support our families in critical jobs, for childcare and for those children that need to be in school with the importance of ensuring that all staff, children and families remain safe in such treacherous conditions. Sunny Bank will do all it can to support our community and we greatly value your patience and support.
  
  I can see from our Facebook page that many of you have enjoyed the snow day - I love the pictures of all the snowmen and snow angels that you have shared.
  
  Stay safe and take care.
  
  Mr Waters

   

   

   

• Monday 8th February - SCHOOL CLOSED

  Sun 07 Feb 2021

   

  Good evening everybody,
  
  Due to further risk assessments and concerns regarding the treacherous nature of the roads this evening, with cars already struggling to access Sunny Bank, I have made the difficult decision that the school will remain closed to all pupils on MONDAY 8th FEBRUARY.
  
  I have also decided that tomorrow will be a Snow Day for our staff and children and therefore there will be no remote learning - instead use the time to build snowmen, start a snowball fight or just curl up and watch through a window... remember to follow COVID guidance as you enjoy the snow ⛄️ though.
  
  Remote learning will resume on Tuesday 9th February and I will confirm tomorrow whether the school will reopen for key workers/vulnerable pupils.
  
  Stay safe and please put photos and messages of your Snow Day on Class Dojo.
  
  Mr Waters
