Coming into School…In the morning you will come onto

the playground via the gate.When the bell goes the children line

up in their classes. They will then be taken into school by their teacher.

If you are late (after 8:50) the side door is likely to be closed and locked, please make sure your child is signed in at the office.

… and Going Home Again!

At the end of the day the children will collect their belongings and come out through their classroom door onto the playground with their teacher.

They will need to point out who is collecting them before they are allowed to go.

Please ensure your child knows who is collecting them.

Please let the teacher know, by a quick note or by catching them on the playground, if a different person is picking up your child.

And Finally…

Are there any questions?

I look forward to seeing you in September!
