Funeral Arrangements

The BWIC family will, by now, be aware of the recent death of our student, in 7SW last year, Amber Missick (R.I.P.). Students and teachers held a touching memorial service in Brayton Hall on Wednesday, during which we were accompanied by members of Amber’s family.
The funeral is, at the family’s request, to be a private one and you are politely asked to respect their wish that attendance be by invitation only.
Our sincerest condolences to the Missick family. While Amber will be sorely missed, her generous spirit, warm personality and beautiful smile will live on in our hearts.

Half Term Holiday

School finishes today at 3.30pm and will be closed next week for the half-term holiday. BWIC re-opens at 7.45am on Monday 31st October.
