We have been hugely pleased to see that, since it became mandatory, so many of our young people have brought and worn a face covering while in school. On the odd occasion when a pupil has forgotten to bring one we have been happy to provide a replacement for them from the school stocks. However, now we are facing shortages in availability of disposable masks and, as a result, are not always in a position to be able to offer one to pupils who need them.

Please can we ask that pupils come prepared with their own face covering whenever possible to avoid the unpleasant situation of them not having one or not being able to get one from school staff.

Thank you, all, for your continued support of the school in these difficult times.
