School Lockers Lockers will not be issued at the moment as we have lockers keys still outstanding. If you have kept your locker key please return this to school reception NOW, as it is causing an unfair delay to your fellow peers who have returned their key and completed a new application form. We must have this issue resolved within this week so we can process this year’s applications.
