Spring Term Parent Evening Appointment Requests 


School Times

A reminder for all parents that children can come into school from 8.30 am each morning and go straight to their classroom. However, they must arrive by 8.55 am as once the gates are shut they will have to enter via the office and they will be marked as late. 

In the afternoon the gates will open at 3.05pm for parents/carers to enter the school site and children will be dismissed at 3.10pm. Please ensure your child is collected from their classrooms by 3.20pm, after this time they will need to be collected from the office.
Thank you.

Please be reminded that your child’s sQuid account should be topped up at all times. We cannot provide dinners for pupils whose account exceeds a debt of £10.
