Arrivals

The school gates open at 8.45am, allowing children time to make their way into school. When the bell rings at 8.50am, children line up with their class and are accompanied into school by their teacher.

Reception children are taken directly to the external entrance of their classroom by their parent or carer.

Registration takes place at 9.00am. Children should arrive promptly and ready to begin the school day. Children arriving after 9.00am should report to the school office and follow the late arrival procedure.

Break and Lunch

Children have a morning break from 10.30am to 10.45am, followed by a one-hour lunch break from 12.00pm to 1.00pm.

Collection

At the end of the school day, children are collected from the playground. Key Stage 1 are dismissed at 3.20pm, while Key Stage 2 are dismissed at 3.30pm.

We ask that all children are collected promptly at the end of the school day.
