Reminder: Due to an unscheduled road closure pupils who normally
catch the bus at Shebbear New Inn Cross, Shebbear Square and
Shebbear Hay view Lane End need to get themselves to pick up
point Battledown Cross from 28/6/2012 – 4/07/2012. Pick-up time
8:08 and drop off time 16:02.
Before the end of term all pupils with lockers must either return their
key or pay for next year
Price for lockers is £3 plus £5 refundable deposit. Pupils that paid
the deposit for this year only need to pay £3 for next year. (New
lockers were installed during February Half Term this year when
lockers 252 to 293 and 601 to 690 were issued a £5 deposit was
taken. all other lockers issued before this did not require a £5
deposit) ALL LOCKERS NOW REQUIRE A £5 REFUNDABLE
DEPOSIT PLUS £3 HIRE COST. The deposit is required due to the
large number of keys that fail to be returned each year.
Any keys that are not paid for or returned will be billed for the cost of
replacing the Lock or the £5 deposit will not be returned
Our pupils did fantastic last Saturday at Exeter, loads of PB’s
despite the wind, rain and +4 wind!
