Good Luck!

Good luck to our Harrogate Town cohort who begin their FA Youth Cup campaign on Monday evening when they take on Gateshead in the preliminary round at Harrogate Town's ground.

The match kicks off at 7pm and admission is £2 on the gate. Please come along if you can!

The team had a fantastic run in the competition last season, reaching the actual FA Youth Cup and earning a trip to face Tranmere Rovers at Prenton Park. We wish them every success this year and would love to see plenty of support from the Rossett community on Monday night.

Yew Tree Lane Road Closure – Travel Information

Yorkshire Water has advised us that Yew Tree Lane in Pannal will be closed at Clark Beck Crossing for five days from Monday 5th October. The closure will be in place 24 hours a day throughout the works.

Families who travel through this area may wish to allow extra time for their journeys to and from school during this period. A signed diversion route will be in place via Whinney Lane and Hill Top Lane, although some families may prefer to use alternative local routes.

The work is part of Yorkshire Water's investment in improving the wastewater network in the Harrogate area.

Data Check 

As part of our ongoing data checks, we are asking all families to review the information we hold for their child.

If your child is a service child and you do not believe the school is aware of this, please contact us so that we can update our records. Similarly, if your circumstances have changed and your child is no longer considered a service child, please let us know.

We would also be grateful if you could log in to Arbor to check that your contact details and other information are accurate and up to date, making any amendments where necessary.

Every Disc Makes a Difference

Up for Yorkshire's 'Every Disc Makes a Difference' campaign is encouraging people to recycle their unwanted DVDs, CDs or computer games rather than send them to landfill.

There are a number of local donation points, including Harrogate Leisure Centre and Knaresborough Leisure Centre. If you would like to find out more about the campaign, including how to donate, please watch the campaign film here
