Year 4 | Story Wood School

COVID 19 UPDATE - SCHOOL CLOSURE

We are currently operating as an emergency care facility for children of key workers (e.g. NHS staff, police, others in frontline services) and children with certain needs. The Government have advised that children stay at home where possible and only use this service when there is no alternative provision for the children.

During term time, there will be food parcels available for children who are entitled to free school meals - these will only be available for pick up on Wednesdays.
