The School Day

 

From September 2023, the Government issued new guidelines that schools must follow. To ensure that our school meets these new guidelines, we had to extend our school day slightly.

 

For school aged children, they can come into the classroom from 8:40am with school starting at 8:45am ensuring a calm and welcoming start to the day, providing time for parents to chat to the teacher and support staff.

The school day finishes at 3:20pm with lunch provided by the onsite catering team from 11:30am.

The school day is 6 hours 35 minutes long which equates to 32.55 hours a week Monday - Friday.

 

Children using the breakfast and after school club will be accompanied to and from the club during school hours. Breakfast Club starts at 07:45am and Afterschool Club finishes at 17:30pm. For information about booking breakfast and after school club, please speak to the school office. 

 

For nursery children, sessions are:

Morning: 9am -12pm including lunch. You can choose to provide a packed lunch or purchase a school dinner. 

Afternoon: 12 – 3pm

All day: 9 - 3pm.

Please provide a healthy snack and a water bottle for your child, ensuring these are clearly named. All children in Reception - Year Two receive free school meals but after this you must check to see if you are entitled to free school meals.

We are a nut and pineapple free school as we have children who attend our school who have severe allergies to these foods.
