Dear Parents and Carers,

Having considered the weather forecast and the latest updates from Cornwall Council on storm damage and adverse travel conditions today, we have made the decision to implement a late start of 10.30am today 23.10.2026. This is to allow staff and families to be able to travel safely to school in these windy conditions and to make sure that the school grounds are safe. It may be that some staff and families will experience greater difficulties than others in getting to school and we ask that everyone takes the time it needs to arrive safely.

Please can you make sure that your child is dressed appropriately today and take extra care on the school site. We will do our best to make the main pathways safe but there may be storm debris on the site and we may not have had time to check and clear the wider areas and playgrounds. Where you see any barriers in place, these will be there to remind you that these are no-go areas. Staff will be on duty to direct children and parents on the safe pathways to classrooms.

The gates will open at 10:30am and registration will close at 10:45am. There will be no breakfast club today.

Kind regards

Marie Taylor
Headteacher

Dear Families,

With forecasts suggesting that Storm Austen may bring some unsettled weather over the coming days, I wanted to write to reassure you about our plans. As you will, no doubt, be aware, the Met Office has issued an Amber wind warning for the whole of Cornwall, the Isles of Scilly, and parts of West Devon that will come into force tonight and Friday morning. It is expected that winds will subside across Friday afternoon. Additionally, a Yellow weather warning for rain will be in place from midnight tonight, through to 2pm on Friday.



At present, we expect for our school to be open as normal and we are looking forward to welcoming pupils as usual. We will continue to monitor the weather closely and will only consider closing the school if there are health and safety concerns that make it unsafe for pupils, staff or families.



We know that weather conditions can vary across our community, and we would encourage everyone to make their own decisions based on local conditions. Please only travel if it is safe to do so. Your safety, and that of your children, is always the most important consideration.



Should circumstances change, we will communicate with families as quickly as possible through our usual channels and keep you updated about any changes to opening arrangements or school timings. You can also keep up to date with any school closures or delayed openings at https://shorturl.at/xYj2h.



Thank you for your continued support, understanding and cooperation. We hope that everyone stays safe, and we look forward to seeing our pupils in school.



Yours faithfully,
Marie Taylor

As designers, we had a fantastic time this week creating our Stone Age structures. When designing and creating the framework we thought carefully about stability, strength and structure. We considered how to make our shelters sturdy while also giving them an authentic Stone Age feel by using natural materials
From planning to building, we showed incredible creativity, teamwork and problem-solving skills. Well done Year 3!

What an exciting morning for Year 2 on Tuesday! We had the pleasure of meeting Eve and her sea dragon, Levi. The children loved learning all about the different species of dragons that live in Cornwall. They asked lots of fantastic questions and enjoyed sharing some of their own wonderful ideas for their dragon writing
Thank you so much to Eve for taking the time to bring some very special dragon magic to King Charles!
