School Hours

SCHOOL HOURS – these are our usual school hours.

Weekly: 32.5 hours

All Classes:

School begins at 8.45am and the children are able to go into their classrooms from 8:35am each day. All children should enter through the small gate next to the office. 

The school day ends at 3.15pm for all classes. The children are collected from the playground.

Other Collection Information

 

ARRIVALS & DEPARTURES DURING THE SCHOOL DAY

Please ensure that if your child arrives after registration or is taken out during the school day that he/she is signed in or out of school. This information is required to safeguard the children generally and particularly in the event of a fire or an emergency. 

MEDICAL & DENTAL APPOINTMENTS

Although we appreciate that this is sometimes unavoidable, please where possible, try to make appointments outside of school hours and during holidays, especially for routine check-ups. Please provide proof of appointments to the school office. 

PARKING

In the interest of safety, please respect the road markings and village residents when parking. 

Any parents who feel that they may be entitled to transport for their child to get to school should make enquiries to the Area Education Office.
