AMBER WEATHER WARNING 25.11.2021

 


Dear Families,

 

School Updates – Amber Weather Warning

 

We have just found out from Orkney Islands Council that they intend closing all schools tomorrow from 1pm due to a Met Office Amber Weather alert for storm / wind conditions.

 

Dounby Community School will therefore close to all pupils at 1pm on Friday 26th November 2021 in line with the OIC guidance.

 

School dinners will be provided as normal, with our early years classes having lunch at 12pm and the rest of our school at 12.20pm.

 

School transport will then collect pupils from 12.50pm onwards and we have been informed that further information about timings will come from your child(ren)’s transport provider as soon as possible. The aim is to have all children on school transport collected by 1pm approx.

 

Pupils who walk to school or come by car are to be collected at 1pm.

 

Should there be any changes to any of the above information, we will write out to you as soon as it is received.

 

Many thanks for your understanding in this matter.
