All children enter through the school playground once the gates are unlocked.
-
Children arriving after 8:50am must report to the school office to be registered and admitted to class.

Children are collected at 3:15pm from a designated point on the playground. In emergencies, children will wait in the entrance hall until collected by a parent or guardian.
At the start and end of the day, children are encouraged to go straight to their classrooms, where staff will be waiting. This helps promote independence.
We value communication with parents. If you need to speak to a class teacher, please do so at the start or end of the school day whenever possible.
At the beginning of each academic year, we ask parents to update the Arbor app to provide information about who is authorised to collect their child each day. If collection arrangements need to change temporarily, You should update the change through the Arbor App.
