Morning Playtime
There are two spacious areas of outdoor space, one for EYFS children and the other for Key Stage 1 children. The school provides a mid-morning snack and drink.
A bell sounds the end of break and children “freeze” and show 10 fingers. Once still and quiet children are told “It’s time to walk in” and the entire school ‘flows’ into school. Children are in class ready to start the lesson by 10:50.
Lunchtime is split into two sessions and across two playground areas as follows:
12:00 to 1:00 Early Years Foundation Stage Reception classes
12:15 to 1:15 Key Stage 1 Year 1
12:30 to 1:30 Key Stage 1 Year 2
3:00
A bell signals the end of afternoon school and home time for the children. Children are not allowed to leave the Class Teacher and building until a known adult can be seen. Any children left after ten minutes may be escorted to the main School Office. EnergyKidz staff collect children on their register at the end of the day.
**Please note that a child will not be allowed to leave with an unknown adult without prior arrangement or telephone call from the parent/carer, with a child under the age of 16 or anyone deemed unfit to take care of child!**
