Thanks for alerting me to this, Goldhawk. I suspect you are not a direct neighbour of the school or you would be unlikely to be supporting.
Since La Retraite ramped up its commercial activity a couple of years ago, living around the school has become hellish due to hugely increased traffic and the pollution from idling cars, not to mention noise until late from slamming car doors and disturbance from the activities themselves. It’s tough enough not being able to get your small children to sleep until after 8pm (the current event curfew) when they have school the next day, let alone the proposed 10pm. Imagine the stressful impact on family life.
I know schools need to raise extra revenue these days but guidelines state this should be done with consideration for neighbouring residents. La Retraite needs to bear this in mind and reconsider their proposals.
