Start of the Day<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

The playground is supervised from 8:50am<\/strong>.
Children should not be in the playgrounds before this time<\/strong>, as supervision is not available.<\/p>\n

We do not use school bells. A whistle is used at 9:00am<\/strong> to signal the start of the school day.<\/p>\n

Parents and carers of children in Primaries 1\u20133<\/strong> may come into the playgrounds in the morning.
When the whistle sounds, all parents and carers should leave promptly so that the school day can begin smoothly.<\/p>\n

End of Day Arrangements<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

If there is a change to your child\u2019s usual arrangements, please contact the school office as early as possible.<\/p>\n

To support a smooth and safe end to the day, we ask that children are clear about their arrangements before arriving at school wherever possible.
Late changes close to 3:00pm can be difficult to manage and should be avoided unless necessary.<\/p>\n
