NEW ROAD/COUCY CLOSE
PARKING DANGER
Due to parents parking
illegally opposite Coucy Close and blocking view/access to the close there was
an incident last week where a mum and her baby were knocked by a car at this
junction.
We repeatedly ask
for parents to find a safe and legal place to park, and we understand that this
can be a challenge in Framlingham, but please allow a little extra time to find
a safe place to park. We do not want to
have to report that a child has been hospitalized, or worse, because of unsafe
parking causing danger on the road.
**** NEWSFLASH****** Following this incident the Police
have taken an active interest in the issue and we attach a letter to all
parents from Suffolk Constabulary.
WALK TO SCHOOL WEEK – 18 –
21 MAY
This item will not be relevant for
children who come to school by bus.
We are keen to
promote the wider health benefits of keeping active whilst also providing
better promotion of road safety and sustainable travel and so we would
encourage all families to walk to school next week if at all possible.
Perhaps those
who normally drive into Framlingham could park on the outskirts of the town and
walk in from there next week. Please take
a look at www.walktoschool.org.uk
for activities, support and ideas for children and families for that week.
TEACHING VACANCY
We are
currently advertising for a KS2 teacher to
start in September.Visit the Suffolk Jobs Direct website here for details and application forms.
PARENT COUNCIL REQUEST…
