Scholastic Book Fair – This Week

This week, we will be holding a Scholastic book fair – beginning tomorrow (Tuesday).

Children can purchase books in school at break. Parents/children will also be able to look through the books and make purchases at the end of the day (in the practical area) from Tuesday.

All classes will have been round to see the books/stationary available today – and may have returned with a wish list.

Books can be purchased with cash on the day or via ordering online, using the QR code below (also found on the bottom of the wish list) or by visiting bookfairs.scholastic.co.uk/pay.

All books sold will also raise money towards purchasing books for the school.

FOBCS – Bridgnorth Walk

Please see below from FOBCS:

FOBCS– Bridgnorth Walk- Brown Clee School Team Entry

This year’s Bridgnorth Walk takes place on Monday 4th May. We were wondering if there would be enough interest for us to enter a school team, to take part in the Junior Walk (ages 9-15) & Family Walk, both of which depart from and return to the family fun day at Cleobury North Village Hall. Early bird entry fees apply until 28th Feb- Junior Walk £10 each + £1 booking fee, Family Walk £6 each + £1 booking fee. All entry fees go to the Bridgnorth Lions Club who in turn donate to various local and national charities and good causes.

The Junior and Family Walk routes are much shorter than the full route with the route of the family walk being fully pushchair and wheelchair accessible.

The walk is both fun and safe, and the theme for 2026 is ‘Community Matters’, as everyone comes together to celebrate the very best of our local community.

Please let us know if you would like to take part (whether it’s a yes or no!) : Bridgnorth Walk Brown Clee School Team Entry – Fill out form

SCHOOL CLOSURE – 9TH JAN ’26

Unfortunately, we are not going to be able to open today due to the adverse weather conditions causing obvious issue with travel, access to site and disruption to power.

As it is still a school day, we do have some tasks for children to try and complete:

Build a snowman or make a snow angel
Throw a snowball
Catch a snowflake
Fall over
Go sledging
Get cold hands or feet
Warm back up
But, most importantly: have fun and stay safe.

(If anyone does wish to send any pictures af things they’ve been up to in the snow, please feel free to email these to admin@brownclee.shropshire.sch.uk – and these will be shared via the website/Facebook with the rest of the school).

Weather watch – Thursday Evening / Friday Morning

With ongoing potential amber weather warnings (for snow) for Thursday evening (8pm) until Friday morning (9am), we will be reviewing the forecast over the day and into the evening tomorrow (Thursday).

The school has no plans for closure tomorrow – unless there is a significant change between now and tomorrow morning. A decision on whether we can be open on Friday will be made on Friday morning (or Thursday evening – should conditions be particularly bad already at that point).

If we are forced to close, then this will be shared via the school website, school Facebook page and via Shropshire Council closure page.
