Youβll find Year 3 having some snowy Forest School fun!
We believe if you want to really get to know a school you need to see it in action on a normal school day. So, from 9.00am β 4.00pm, Monday 29th January to Friday 9th February 2024, Burgess Hill Girls will open our whole school so you can book a personal tour and meet our students, teachers and senior leaders.
To book your place, please visit our website β‘οΈ https://eu1.hubs.ly/H06NMks0

Posted β’ Brighton seafront dog walkers! β οΈ
Please be aware that there is some sort of washed-up pollution on the beach areas between Brunswick Square and The Meeting Place (and probably other areas too), that has unfortunately been consumed by two dogs, both of which are now seriously ill and being treated and monitored at the vets.
Apparently the dogβs vomit smells strongly of tar/chemicals (possibly a palm oil/diesel/chemical mix), and is being examined by the Animal Poison Line, weβll update you with any more information as and when we have it.
Needless to say if your dog is a bit of a scavenger, these areas are best avoided for the time being.
Thanks to the member of the public who shared this information, really hope your dogs are okay.
