DELCE INFANT SCHOOL AND NURSERY BAD WEATHER ARRANGEMENTS There are occasional times during the winter when bad weather conditions occur. If the school needs to close due to bad weather, we will communicate to you as efficiently as possible by texting all parents on the first day of closure. Please ensure you have provided us with your mobile number. A notice will be updated regularly on the school website (www.delceinfants.co.uk) and the local radio websites, BBC RADIO KENT, HEART KENT AND KM FM and also www.kentclosures.co.uk. If we experience very bad weather, e.g. very heavy snow showers, during the day, a message will be broadcast on these stations/websites asking parents to collect their children. Children will only be released to parents or named emergency contacts. Please ensure that you let the school office know the name of any adult who has permission to collect your child(ren) from school. We will not be able to release your child to a neighbour unless his / her name is on the emergency contact list. This is purely to ensure the safety of your child(ren). If bad weather occurs overnight causing dangerous travelling conditions, the school will open as usual at 8.55 a.m. as we have sufficient staff that live within walking distance of the school. However, if you feel that it is too dangerous to venture out at this time, you may delay bringing your child to school until 10 a.m. Any changes to the normal school arrangements will be broadcast on BBC RADIO KENT, HEART KENT AND KM FM, www.kentclosures.co.uk and www.delceinfants.co.uk and via text message between 7.00 a.m. and 8.30 a.m. This message will be repeated daily until normal arrangements restart.
