Damage to school property On Thursday evening a school planter was damaged when a Castlefield’s child jumped into in it after deliberately trying to remove it from its mornings. This I might add was done whilst the child’s carer was present! This planter has had to be thrown away now. We have all witnessed examples of poor behavior from children waiting for older relations recently. I must stress to everybody that the behavior of the children you bring into our playground is your responsibility. I do not want to have to ban badly behaved children but I will.
