Our School Day
The school day starts at 8.55am and finishes at 3.15pm. Registration is at 8.55 am. The door from the playground opens at 8.45 am to give pupils time to come in and settle in a relaxed and calm way before school begins. They also have early work to do so it is important that they are in class before registration.
Morning playtimes
Children have a break from 10.30am – 10.45am.
Lunch
Children in Reception begin their lunch at 11.40 am. Those in Y1 and Y2 begin their lunch at 11.45 am. Y3 begin their lunch at 12.00pm. All other children start their lunch break at 12.00pm and come into the hall at 12.30pm to eat their their lunch. Lunchtime for Reception and KS1 ends at 12.45pm. At this time, those children in Years R, 1 and 2 return to class for registration. Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 return for their afternoon learning at 1pm.
Drop-off and collection
At the beginning and end of the school day, parents come into the playground. This helps to build up a close relationship between home and school as well as keeping your children safe. If normal arrangements have to be altered (e.g. you are delayed or another person is collecting your child), please let us know. This avoids any confusion or upset. Please remember that before and after school, the children are the responsibility of their parents and should be supervised at all times. The use of playground equipment is prohibited at these times.
Getting to school
To get to and from school, walking is definitely the best option! There are lots of benefits: it’s healthier than travelling by car, it improves the safety of pedestrians and road-users, and it respects nearby residents and parking regulations. If you do need to travel by car, please park wisely and consider the safety of all pupils, parents and carers.
