Punctuality

It is essential that children arrive on time for each session in order to get off to a prompt start. Supervision of pupils on school premises is available from 8:40am and, for safety reasons, pupils should not arrive earlier than this.  Children who arrive late face great difficulties as the first few minutes set the tone for the rest of the day.

​

Staying Energised!

Children are encouraged to drink water during the day. Fresh, chilled water is available to all pupils. Please equip your child with a lidded, named, plastic drinks container for this purpose. Children in the Foundation Stage are provided with free milk and fruit/vegetables choice daily. Water is also readily available. Free fruit/vegetables continues until the end of Year 2.
