Emergency Closure

School Closure

If we have to make the decision to close the school during the day due to unforeseen circumstances or worsening weather conditions, it is not always possible to notify parents in advance. 

 

It is imperative that children know what to do in such a situation. For example, are they aware of where they should go in the event the school has to close early; do they know how to get home by public transport; do they have “emergency” money available at all times; do they have keys to their house, etc. 

Students who are not permitted to leave in these circumstances should report to Reception where staff will contact parents to make the necessary arrangements.

 

Snow and Ice

Snow and ice can sometimes cause disruption to travel to and from school. We make every effort, subject to health and safety requirements, to keep St Gregory’s open so our students can continue to learn.

 

However, if severe weather occurs, we will assess the safety of the school site and if we believe there is a risk to safety, or if bus companies advise that road conditions are deteriorating, closure of the school may be necessary. Should we need to close the school, information will be posted on the home page of the school website.

Our Values

Ambition Rooted firmly in Catholic teachings, we aim to nurture and guide our students to fulfil their God-given potential so they may achieve success.

Leadership We strive to be a community of servant leaders, where individuals gain a clear sense of self and purpose, knowing their values and using these to guide how they enrich the community in which they belong.

Integrity We teach our students to value honesty and have strong moral principles, using their discernment to govern their actions and take responsibility for their choices.

Vigour Inspired by the life of St Gregory, we empower our students to work with vigour, so they approach all activities and opportunities with effort, energy and enthusiasm.

Empathy We aim for our students to understand and value the feelings of others and for them to know they are loved and celebrated irrespective of their differences.
