The School Day

At our school, we recognise the paramount importance of the partnership between the child, home, and school. By collaborating closely, we can provide your child with the best possible opportunities for development as a learner. Our commitment is to foster a stimulating environment that emphasizes both excellence and enjoyment in learning, encouraging children to engage actively in all their endeavours. It is through this approach that we hope to lay the foundations for curious minds, equipping them to continue their journey of discovery long after they leave our school.

The school day commences at 8:45 AM and concludes at 3:30 PM.

For families requiring an earlier drop-off option, we offer an early drop-off club, which begins at 8:00 AM. When arriving at school, children are expected to proceed directly to their respective classes at 8:45 AM where they are registered at 8:55 AM. Our teaching assistants, along with Mrs King (where possible), are present in the playground before school starts and are available to address any quick queries you may have.

During the day, our teaching schedule is structured as follows: the first morning teaching session occurs from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM, followed by a brief morning break from 11:00 AM to 11:15 AM. Teaching resumes with the second morning session from 11:15 AM to 12:15 PM.

Lunchtime is then scheduled from 12:15 PM to 1:15 PM, The afternoon teaching session is from 1:30 PM to 3:00 PM, culminating in Collective Worship from 3:00 PM to 3:20 PM before the final dismissal at 3:30 PM.

For parents driving to school, we kindly ask that you refrain from parking along the road near the playground, and to consider our neighbours by not obstructing their access. Once a member of staff is on duty, please utilise the “drop and go” service to reduce traffic congestion.

We offer a school lunch menu where children can order their meals upon arrival, selecting from a three-week rolling menu. All payments are processed through the parent cashless app.

In the event of inclement weather that poses a threat to safety, we recommend listening to local radio broadcasts or visiting Norfolk County Council’s website for updates on potential school closures.
