School shut!
The snow must be bad as DD's school has been advised to shut early. Usually they stay open even when the others close
Re: School shut!
Building up quite nicely here now - but school is open. In fact popping my head out of the door to check the snow depth just now I could hear lots of excited noise coiming from the school. You can't usually hear them from here so either the conditions are allowing sound to travel further than normal, or their having an awful lot of fun at breaktime over there!
Some schools around here starting to advise that they're closing at lunchtime though, having just checked the local school closures page again.

Re: School shut!
Hi RM.
DD2's primary usually shuts at the drop of a snowflake, but DD looked on the web and is not happy with it being pretty much the only local school open
I was looking forward to her being off and had all the sledges/clothing ready
DD1 is at home because her indie is in the sticks, but DD2 is the adrenalin junkie

Re: School shut!
Finished work early so I can go play with DCs. Yay!
Re: School shut!
Ours is closing early "because the buses will have trouble getting into the car park". Did no-one think of griiting the car park?!
scary mum
Re: School shut!
Just heard ours is closing at 1.30. There will be plenty for snowmen by then with the rate it's coming down. I've just been up to the attic to get my favourite sledge (the traditional wooden one) down. We like snow here - I only have two kids - but we have 5 sledges, and about 20 pairs of skis

Re: School shut!
Am hoping for an early home time too. Going to put the stuff in the car now.
Would work out to be a perfect day if they do.
I went for a run, got some bargains in the online sales, have some lunch, go for a sledge and home in time to watch 'Pointless' with beer/curry/red wine later.
Weekend starts here baby!

Not yet in Chelmsford. We just got a spat and that was it. They say we'll get more snow around 4 p.m. Ah well we can't have everything can we.
