Parents, there will only be pedestrian access to Woodford park tomorrow morning.
If driving, please park considerably on Haddon Drive and remember that there will also be families from St Dominic’s parking on the street and dropping off their children too, so it is likely to be quite congested.

Happy New Year 🐎 🔥

The Fire Horse brings together the Horse sign and the fire element, one of five elements in Chinese astrology. Fire is traditionally associated with visibility, emotion, confidence, and drive. When paired with the Horse, this combination is often interpreted as more assertive and energetic than other Horse years.
