Next week, the Comms System that we use for sending texts and emails will be changing. This afternoon we have sent a ‘test text’ out. It will look as though it has come from phone number +44 7476 944732. Please save this as ‘Askwith texts’ in your phone book. Please note, it is not possible for you to respond to these texts as they cannot be checked.

Please be aware that we currently have a few cases of chicken pox in classes 1 and 2. Please watch out for symptoms in your own children. Unfortunately, if children do have chicken pox they cannot attend school until all the spots have scabbed over.
