Parking Despite reporting in the newsletter last week of the dangerous actions of some parents in the car park, some of you are continuing to ignore their own safety and the safety of others. Please note that double red lines and more zigzags will be appearing very shortly, so avoid parking there unless you want to be issued with a ticket.
Parents please be vigilant. We have heard reports of muggings in the local area, including one of our parents who had money stolen from her. The perpetrator is described as an Asian man, 40-50 years with a long white beard and traditional clothes. I would urge you all to be very vigilant.
