** IMPORTANT NOTICE **
Dear Parents and Carers,
Following a detailed review of tomorrow's weather forecast, discussions with Alton Towers, the coach company, and the staff due to attend, we have made the decision to reschedule the trip from Tuesday to Wednesday this week.
The forecast indicates a 95% chance of rain between 11am and 2pm, with wind gusts expected to reach up to 33mph. Alton Towers has advised us that under these conditions, ride access is very likely to be interrupted. Based on our previous experience in similar weather, where pupils (and staff!) had a disappointing day, we believe this change is in the best interests of the pupils.
Thanks to Mrs Banister's quick thinking and a bit of good luck with availability, we've been able to make alternative arrangements for Wednesday. Timings and bus allocation remain exactly the same as per the information already shared. We are confident this will provide a much more enjoyable and worthwhile experience for everyone involved.
As a result of the change, all pupils will now be in school as normal tomorrow (Tuesday) and timetabled lessons will go ahead as planned. Our non-uniform treat for all pupils will remain in place as previously communicated.
We really appreciate your understanding and support in enabling us to make this decision swiftly and with pupils' experience at the heart of it.
Kind regards,
Mr C Fisher
Executive Principal
