All in a School Day

Our school day for all children is from 8.45am until 3.15pm (32.5 hours a week).

A typical day:

8:30-8:25am

The gate is opened each morning and a senior leader will be on duty at the front and back gate.

8.45am

Register is taken at 8.45am for all children.

Reception, Years 1, 3 and 6 children enter straight into their classrooms from the playground.

Years 2, 4 and 5 children enter through a dedicated door.

Class teachers stand by the door waiting to welcome the children and a senior leader remains on duty at the front and back gate until they are closed at 8:45-8:50am.

Anyone arriving after should report to the office, remembering to order their lunch for the day (especially important if your child is having a hot school meal).
