What you need to do on arrival
Nursery – Children are brought into school through the nursery gate and parents/carers may stay to settle their child.
Children in Butterflies and Caterpillars may be brought into the class by their parents/carers to help settle their child during the Autumn term. During the Spring and Summer term we encourage the children to be independent and come into class by themselves.
In order to increase independence for our Year 1 and Year 2 children, pupils line up in the main playground and are brought into school by their class teachers. Any parent wishing to see the teacher can do so between 8.30am – 8.45am or 3.15pm – 3.30pm or by appointment.
