Quick Update

I’ve toggled the weather watcher to hidden by default but it’s still there if anyone’s checking up on school closures.

I’ve also written to Cllr McDonald about the possible introduction of zig-zag lines outside the school entrance on Howes Road. Parking by inconsiderate parents has long been an issue and this step would make their parking illegal, and ticketable by the police. Hopefully this will be something that can be implemented quickly and go some way to help alleviate this safety concern.

Cllr McDonald is also chasing up an extension to our CCTV system that would complete coverage of the school property on all sides.

The minutes of our latest meeting are also now online here.

Aberdeen City Council yesterday rejected our request to keep our school open. They decided to close both Newhills and Bucksburn schools. They are going to then place both school rolls into a building, not yet built, to continue their education.

There is no timescale set for this and no site has yet been chosen for this building.

Weather Post Getting Hits

The last few days has found this site getting LOTS of hits from parents or other interested individuals because of our weather alerts box.

If you were the person searching for “Was School X closed today?” I fear you may have gotten here too late?
