Our snow story

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For two weeks snow disrupted school life.  Everyone made the most of this rare event - snow in Weston-super-Mare!  At the same time we carried on with our learning as much as we could.  Click below to read more.

Morning traffic arrangements

Since the beginning of term 1 we have been piloting a new system for vehicles.

Between 8.20am and 8.45am no vehicles, apart from staff and essential car users, are allowed on to the school site.

All pupils are to be dropped off outside the school gates where a member of staff will be to ensure their safe passage into school.

This is part of our Travel Plan to ensure the safety of pupils and to ease congestion at the beginning of the school day.  We greatly appreciate your cooperation with this.

 

House points

Remember, you can always check out the current house point scores by clicking on the 'pupils' button above.
