Dear Parents and Carers,

Due to heavy snowfall, the school will be closed today. A governor and a staff member were on site this morning to assess the school grounds, nearby roads, and the village hall car park. With several cars abandoned on the roads into Abberley, the village hall car park unsafe to drive on, and the roads leading up to the school undriveable, the decision has been made to close the school.

This decision was not taken lightly and has been made with the support of the governors and other local schools.

We know this decision may not make all parents happy, but we’re fairly confident that 100% of the children will be delighted! Most importantly, the safety of our pupils, families, and staff must come first.

Thank you for your understanding. We appreciate your support and will keep you updated with any further information.

Warm regards,

Claire Shelley & Abberley Governor
