Our school day begins at 8.50am and finishes at 3.15pm.
This amounts to 32 hours and 50 minutes in a typical week
The Timings of the School Day
The school day starts at 8.50am. Our gates open at 8.40am and the children come straight into school to settle into the classroom and complete a morning activity until the register is taken at 8.55am.
Children should not arrive on the school premises until 8.40am. The gates will automatically unlock at this time to allow access into the playground and from 8.40am staff are available at the children`s entrance to take messages and ensure everyone gets off to a safe start to the day.
There is a mid morning break but children work through the afternoon without a break.
There is a staggered lunchtime and children have 45 mins.
School finishes at 3.15pm and the gates will automatically unlock at 3.05pm to allow adults to collect their child from the playground where they will line up with their class.
