Thank you!

On behalf of all schools in the Wade Deacon Trust, we would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a Happy New Year and thank you all personally for the encouragement and support you have given to us this week in ensuring that our schools have been able to remain open, safe and caring spaces for your children.

We know the disruption to work and personal commitments that a school closure can cause, and we will always do everything we can to ensure that we can to keep our schools open. The continuity of education for our pupils is at the forefront of decision making and we have taken steps each day to make sure our sites are safe for pupils and staff.

The messages of support that you have given to our schools for remaining open have been a real encouragement and boost to our teams working tirelessly in the background to keep our schools operating. We thank you for these kind words.

We would also like to thank each of our local authorities and emergency services for the work they have undertaken during this week in challenging circumstances.

It has been a very cold week and we hope that you all remain safe. 

We look forward to working with you in the term ahead.

Kind regards from all Trustees, Governors and Staff at:

Wade Deacon Trust, Grange Academy, Halewood Academy, Hillside High School, Sylvester Primary, Wade Deacon High, Weston Point Primary, Whiston Willis Primary, Widnes Academy, Yew Tree Primary
