For Your Information
The summer holidays will finally be here at 215pm on Tuesday 23rd July and hopefully the sun will make an extended appearance too!
 
There are lots of things available to families throughout the summer and we have displayed this information on the noticeboards in the alleyway between the main gates to both sites. We have listed activities to do, cheap or free places for children to eat and information about courses happening for families supporting children with additional needs. Don't forget to take a photo when you are collecting your child at the end of the day!
 
We are aware that the holidays are not always easy as normal routine and everyday life is suddenly changed (and that's for children too, not just us adults!). If you are finding it challenging, then please visit our website page which lists the support agencies available: Signposts to support home adults
 
We hope you all have an enjoyable break and can't wait to see you back on Wednesday 4th September for another exciting year ahead!
Curriculum The School Day

The School Day

Start and End times

  • All children in Reception through to Year 6: 8.50am - 3.20pm (32.5 hrs per week, including break times)
  • Nursery full time: 8.30am - 3.30pm (35 hrs per week, including break times)
  • Nursery morning session: 8.30am - 11.30am (15 hrs per week)
  • Nursery afternoon session: 12.30pm - 3.30pm (15 hrs per week)

Gates are opened at least 5 mins before the start of day.

Break Times

  • In Nursery, full time children stay in the setting for a lunch break of an hour between the morning and afternoon session, meaning they benefit from an extra 5 hours of free childcare per week.
  • In Reception and Year 1, children have a one hour lunch break. Children also join a morning and afternoon independent time, to consolidate their learning through self-directed, play-based activities.
  • In Year 2 and Year 3 children have a 15 minute morning break, followed by a lunchtime break of one hour between morning and afternoon sessions.
  • In Year 4 to Year 6, children have a 30 minute morning break, followed by a lunchtime break of 45 mins between morning and afternoon sessions.

Lunch breaks are staggered across the day from 11.30am - 2pm to support high quality supervision and lunchtime activities.
