Image of School Communication Update

Dear parents/carers,

Please see below our updated communication procedures. There are some important changes that will take effect from 4:00pm on Tuesday 13th September 2022.

We will no longer be using School Gateway to send school correspondence to parents/carers. This also includes the School Gateway mailbox, this will not be monitored, therefore message sent via this method will not be visible to the office team after 4:00pm on Tuesday 13th September 2022. All correspondence will be sent via Arbor and email from Wednesday 14th September 2022.

All school payments should still be made via the School Gateway app and we will keep you updated as soon as we have some more information regarding the payment system.

Please see below all ways of contacting the school should you need too:
