Parents Snow is falling !!!

1. Please remember that there may be occasions when it is not possible to operate the morning school transport journey, or the journey may operate late. You must ensure that your child can be safely looked after if there are problems. Please remember that you are responsible for their safety until they have got on the school bus or taxi. If the morning school transport journey does not operate and you decide to take your own children then you must also be prepared to collect them at the end of the school day.
2. There may be circumstances when the Head teacher decides it is necessary for children to be sent home from school early. In the case of primary school children it is essential that the school is able to contact you or a nominated responsible person at short notice. Please make sure that the school has up‐to‐date contact information. In the case of secondary school children please make sure that they can be looked after safely and that they are aware of
what the arrangements are.
3. There may be rare circumstances where the transport is not able to operate the afternoon journey, in which case you will be contacted by the school.
4. If you are aware that there is snowfall in your area as it can vary (mile to mile as you all know) and it would be dangerous for the school bus to get to you please contact Hodsons Coaches Clitheroe Ltd on 01200 429220 or via messenger on here thanks.

Most of all please stay safe.
