Drop-off and collection

At the beginning of the school day, Nursery and Reception parents are expected to drop their children at the school gate, they will walk across the playground, where there will be a member of staff waiting. At the end of the day, full time Nursery and Reception children are collected from the playground. Part time pupils are collected from the school gate at 11.45am.

 

Children should be dropped at the gate in the morning where there will be a senior member of staff waiting to greet them and should be collected from their allocated collection point in the playground at the end of the day.

 

If normal arrangements for home time collection have to be altered (eg you are delayed or another person is collecting your child), please let the office know.  This avoids any confusion or upset.
