Pupils attend school from 09:30 to 15:30.\u00a0 However, we recognise that where families require, flexible drop off and pick up times may be useful.\u00a0 Therefore, pupils may arrive up until 09:45, or be picked up from 15:15.\u00a0 Please discuss such needs with the school so we can best support you and your child.<\/p>\n

Our school office is open from 08:30 until 16:00.<\/p>\n

Whether pupils are dropped off by their families or travel on school transport, they benefit from the warm welcome of familiar faces each day.\u00a0 Teachers, Classroom Assistants, our Facilities Assistant and Senior Leadership Team are in the car park to greet pupils and take them to classes every morning.<\/p>\n

Lunchtime is from 12:00 to 12:45 for younger pupils and 12:45 to 13:30 for older pupils.\u00a0 We see lunchtime as a valuable opportunity for learning and socialisation, and pupils are encouraged to be as independent and responsible as they can be, with staff support as required.<\/p>\n

School term dates are available on the East Ayrshire Council website<\/a>.\u00a0 Please note dates can change depending on local and national circumstances.\u00a0 The school is open to pupils 190 days per year, and staff attend an additional 5 days for in-service training and development.<\/p>\n
