We are pleased to be able to offer our parents full wrap around care for their children, from 7:30 am to 6:30pm.

We operate Breakfast Club each day, which starts at 7:30am.  

One walking bus departs from Barnes Lodge, Tudeley Lane every day at 8:30am, and a second 'drop and go' walking bus departs the Hendy garage, meeting from 8.20am and departing at 8.30am. 

All other children and parents arrive at school from 8:45am where they are welcomed into the school, there is always a member of staff on the gates. Gates close at 8.55am.

The children have a morning break from 10:45am to 11:00am where they have access to a healthy fruit snack. Water is available all day.

The end of the school day is at 3:15pm. The playground gates are opened just prior to this, EY and KS1 parents need to go to their children's classroom door to wait for their dismissal. KS2 parents need to go to the doors on the pathway to KS2 playground and wait for their dismissal. All gates are locked at 3.30pm. We ask that parents / carers clear the school and do not allow their children to use the learning/ play equipment whilst waiting for their child to be dismissed.
