The School Day
Please ensure that your child arrives at school in good time for the commencement of the session.
Children should not arrive more than 10 minutes before the start of each session for reasons of safety
and supervision.
All lower school children are admitted directly into school at their appropriate classroom door at
8.45am each morning where their teacher will be waiting to greet them. We find that this provides a
calmer and more settled beginning to the day. At the end of the session children are dismissed from
their classrooms by staff.
Upper School children should arrive through the Upper School playground gate and enter school
through the appropriate door. A member of staff will be on duty to deal with any messages or
questions that parents may have.
Parents/Carers are not encouraged to come to the gates or fences during break or lunch times.
Your child’s safety is one of our greatest priorities and we ask for your cooperation in helping to
achieve a safe and happy environment. Should you need to enter school please ensure that you do
so by the main door, registering at reception with Mrs Mills or Mrs Thompson.
