The school day
The school day starts at 8.45 and finishes at 3.20 for Class 1 and 3.30 for Classes 2 and 3. Lunchtime is from 12.00 to 1.00pm.
School is open from 8.45am for children to come into class and complete early morning work. If parents wish to speak to their child's class teacher, we ask them to make an appointment, or come into school before 8.45. The day is arranged into four learning sessions, with both a morning, and lunch break. Each day there is an assembly, which is of a broadly Christian nature, and supports pupils spiritual, moral, social and cultural development.
Collecting children from school
Parents should not park in the small staff car park, or outside school at any time, unless making appropriate use of disability parking. Thank you for your understanding.
We ask that if your child is to be transported by school, or by another parent, for any reason, and they are under the legal height requirement, that you supply them with a booster seat when necessary. We will not be able to transport children without booster seats, if they are under the legal height required.
Parents must inform school if a different adult (including a friend's parent) is collecting in the evening - for safeguarding reasons, staff will not send a child home with a different adult unless informed.
