Queen Elizabeth II Funeral

Dear Parents and Carers,

Following the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, it has been confirmed that the State Funeral will be held on Monday 19 September, and that this day will be a Bank Holiday.

While the delivery of essential public services will continue during the period of National Mourning, including the Bank Holiday, schools and further education settings are not expected to remain open on this day. We will be closed on Monday 19th September. 

Normal attendance is expected throughout the period of National Mourning, other than the Bank Holiday; should you and your family wish to request absence for exceptional circumstances in connection with the National Mourning, or for any other reason, please contact the relevant school site or email: education@newforestschool.co.uk

Our admin team are contacting relevant transport companies to ensure they are aware of the closure.

Many thanks for your understanding.

Duncan
