I hear on the radio that we are due a heat wave, peaking on Wednesday, do you have a set policy to protect children? I think ours will probably be to stay indoors after a set time of day...which is common sense, and I imagine it depends where you are in the country.

We head count every ten mins or so to keep track and it works brilliant in practice. However we now have a problem with the fire drill.
