open morning flyerOn Saturday the school is open for prospective parents to view and talk to staff.

Please download the information flyer and pass it on to anyone you know who might be interested in coming to have a look.
Parking and bicycles
I have been requested by the local police to ask all parents to please be aware of the neighbours when parking to drop off and pick up their children, as complaints have been made that drives and the yellow lines are not being observed.
 
The yellow zigzag lines are there for the pupils' protection when coming and going from school. Parking on them, even to drop off pupils, is dangerous and can incur a fine. Car stickers highlighting the need to 'respect the yellow zigzags', are available from the school office. St Winifred's School is supporting Southampton City Council's drive to ensure the yellow zigzags outside city schools are observed.
 
Parents collecting pupils from After School Care are requested NOT to park on the school drive before 5:15pm as there are clubs finishing up until this time and therefore pupils leaving the building by other doors. Also pupils leaving on bikes need to be able to negotiate leaving the grounds in safety.
 
The police have also asked me to remind you that riding bicycles on the pavement is an offence.
