Adverse Weather

At this time of year when there is the possibility of snow, I felt that it would be helpful to let all parents know how we would inform you if the school had to close due to bad weather. Can I also stress that if there are examinations due to take place then those examinations will still run, even if the school itself is closed. We will do everything possible to ensure that they are not disrupted and students will need to report to Reception to check the venue, which might have changed from the published timetable. In the very unlikely event that we will need to close the school, I will post a message here, on the main school website. The message will be posted by 7.00am stating that the school is closed due to snow or ice. I really do hope that we don't have to do this, and we will do everything possible to keep the school open. The feedback from parents and students, over a number of years, has been that was a simple and effective way of making sure that everyone knew what was happening and we will use this same system again this year. In addition, the Local Authority has a website showing which schools and other services such as roads, libraries, refuse collection and household recycling centres, day care centres etc. are closed and you will be able to check this here. Just in case the school website was down, then the above link will be the easiest way to check. Any message posted on the school website will also apply to the Sixth Form – there will not be a separate message posted on the Sixth Form website. We will also put a message on the answerphone. I sincerely hope that it will not be necessary to close at all, but it is best to be prepared and ready just in case. Dr Terry Fish Executive Headteacher

Wonderful Priory Carol Service - December 2015

I would like to thank everyone associated with the school for making the carol service last week such a success. It was a wonderful occasion and our students were nothing other than outstanding. The photo shows the Bel Canto choir singing one of their pieces, with Mrs Jane Wright leading. As always, it was magical. Students from all year groups performed and led the service and I am indebted to them and to our music department for the superb quality of the music and choirs. It was heart-warming to see so many of our local community supporting the carol service and I know that it was exceptionally well received. A huge thank you to Miss Catherine Shanley and Miss Laura Niblett for the way in which they are leading Music at Twynham together with Mr Kevin Cook (Assistant Headteacher and Head of Creative Arts) for his leadership, Mrs Jane Wright for her superb singing tuition and Mr Michael Franks for his technical support. Thank you also to Mr. Chris Chope for taking the time to be with us and to Canon Charles Stewart for his address. Lastly, thank you to the students themselves who were a delight and who excelled, making this such a high quality and fitting introduction to the Christmas period.
