The Start of the Day

Parent/Carers of the Infant children are requested to bring their children onto the playground and to remain with them until they go into school from 8.45 -8.50 a.m. When the weather is very bad, we allow children to come straight into school.

The End of the School Day

Parent/Carers collect their child from outside their classrooms. It is vitally important that parents notify us if anyone other than a parent or the usual carer is collecting the child for any reason, so that we can be certain that the collection has been arranged by the parent.

Breaktime Children from Key Stage 2 may bring in a healthy fruit/vegetablesnack for morning breaktime. Infant children receive a free piece of fruit/vegetable daily under a government scheme.
