Punctuality and Attendance

From Reception to Year 6, the school day begins at 9:00am. (Morning nursery 9:00am, afternoon nursery 1:00pm). 

Please ensure that your child is punctual. We want your child to form good habits. Lateness interferes with your child and other children's education.

If your child arrives at school after registration, you will need to enter the school via the School Reception and sign our late book from 9:00am each day.

Arriving at School

All children enter the school via the pathway to the left of the building. 

Nursery Children enter their classroom at the left of the school, in between the two playground gates.

Foundation Phase children enter the second secured gate into their playground at the rear of the school and play until being called to class at 9:00am

KS2, Year 3 to 6 enter the first secure gate into the front playground and play there before being called to class at 9:00am.

No parents are allowed into the playground. However, there is an opportunity to speak with a member of staff at the gate should you have a query.

 

Collecting Children

Please phone the school or let the class teacher know if someone different is collecting your child at the end of the day. We will only release a child on a pre-arranged basis toa familiar adult or older sibling aged 16 years or older.

If your child has an appointment and you need to collect your child early please let the school Office know and collect from Primary reception and we will ask you to sign our book.
