MERRY CHRISTMAS & A HAPPY NEW YEAR
Thank you children for the amazing Christmas production! Our aim is always to develop the children’s confidence and enjoyment for all as we learn and understand what Christmas is really about.
Thank you to the staff for once again making our St Andrew’s children’s Christmas so special. Thank you to families and friends for your support at these events and all year round too!

SNOWY WEATHER CONDITIONS
Should the weather deteriorate with heavy snow falls, a decision will be taken as to whether or not the school remains open or closed. This decision will be based on the health and safety of the school site users, both adult and children.
Should the school be closed notification will be given to WISH FM who will release the names of the schools closed throughout the morning on their regular bulletins. Please do not phone the radio station as this will only lead to blocked phone lines. Please be assured that notification will be given to the radio station at the earliest possible time. Please check the school website www.wiganstandrews.net which will be regularly updated. Information may also be found on the Wigan LA website www.wigan.gov.uk.

RETURNING TO SCHOOL AFTER SICKNESS AND ILLNESS
Can I remind you that children must not attend school if they have suffered from a sickness bug or diarrhoea until 48 hours have passed since the last bout. This is to prevent the illness spreading throughout the school community.

Merry Christmas from all the staff at St Andrew’s.
