From September children MUST be in class and ready for registration for 8:45am. This is the time that the gates will close. The register will be taken then and any children arriving after that time will be marked late. Gates will open at approximately 8:35am and children will be able to go to class from 8:40am. School finishes at 3:15pm. (Please note that nursery times are unaffected and remain at 9:00-3:00). This is also to advise you that the school’s catering provider, Chartwells is having to implement an increase in the price of school meals. This will take effect from Monday 5th September 2022. The cost increase means that meals will rise from £2.20 to £2.40 each day or £12.00 per week. Thank you
