URGENT AND IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM BARNARD CASTLE POLICE:

Barnard Castle Neighbourhood Policing Team

I have recently been made aware of some parking issues around the area of Green Lane CE Primary School, specifically cars parking over footpaths and cars parking opposite each other, meaning there is not enough space on the road for an emergency vehicle to fit through should it be necessary and compromising children/footpath users’ safety.

Can I ask that consideration is kept for all road and footpath users. The local Neighbourhood Policing Team and highways will be conducting extra patrols and will act against any vehicle found to be causing an obstruction in the area.

Parents/Guardians- If you know a vehicle which causes obstruction frequently, please take photo of it causing the obstruction and send me an email. You can stay anonymous.

The Barnard Castle Beat Team takes all reports seriously and is working to reduce the number of complaints raised by school staff as well parents and residents.

Regards

Preet

Children’s Mental Health Week 2026

We’re excited to join Children’s Mental Health Week (9–15 Feb), led by Place2Be. This year’s theme is “This Is My Place”, focusing on helping children explore where they feel safe, valued and a sense of belonging.

Dress Down Day: Friday 13th February 2026

Children can wear something that represents their place — comfy clothes, club kits, hobby outfits, nature colours or kindness‑themed clothing. (No need to buy anything new!)

Let’s celebrate the people and places that help our children feel they belong.
