Estimates vary but we had somewhere in the region of eight to twelve inches of snow in Shiplake today. Few day pupils made it in but the boarders were kept busy. Year 13 worked all morning and for an hour in the afternoon; it was a good chance for them to catch up with work, continue with coursework and revise for the fast approaching AS and A2 exams. Staff were available for consultations throughout the day. In the afternoon Year 13 organised a mass snowball battle on New Field; others opted for sledging in fields nearby. We were all fed superbly by Steve Beaumont, our Catering Manager and a skeleton staff. With more snow forecast, the liklihood is that tomorrow will see similar arrangements.
Day pupils who find they do not have enough work to keep them occupied are very welcome to phone or email Nick brown who will find them more to do!
Local roads, while passable in four wheel drive vehicles, are still dangerous.
