Due to potential impacts from Tropical Cyclone Alfred, including a heightened risk of flooding, 121 schools from the Clarence Valley north to the Queensland border, and inland to the Kyogle Shire will be non-operational from today, Wednesday 5 March, through to Friday 7 March 2025.
A full list of non-operational schools is available at: https://education.nsw.gov.au/.../school-operational-status
We request families in affected areas to not send your children to school for the next three days. Our school staff will be onsite this morning in case the message is not received in time.
At this stage we expect schools to resume operations on Monday 10 March 2025.
The SES have asked that families prepare their homes for strong winds, by putting away loose items around their home, trimming trees aways from properties and not parking vehicles under trees or powerlines.
Never drive, walk, ride through, play or swim in flood water, and any avoid unnecessary travel.
