School Start Times and Collection Times
Start Times

Where do I collect my child on each site?
Nursery: All children should be collected from their classrooms.
Junior School :
Year 1(a ) Mrs Doherty’s class and Year 2 (b) Mrs Hamilton’s Class should be collected from the front pupil exit beside their classrooms.
Year 1 (b) Miss Hutton’s Class and Year 2 (a) Mrs Mc Glynn’s Class should be collected from the exit door beside their classroom.
All Year 3 and Year 4 Classes will be escorted by their teachers to the front of the School where they can be collected. Parents/ carers/ older siblings may collect pupils from the front of the school.
It should be noted that there is a Metal Bridge (at the front of the Junior School) and a Play Trail at the back of the Junior School but we respectfully request that parents do not allow children to play on this equipment as there is no staff member available at hometime to supervise safe play on this equipment and accidents may happen! Thank you!
Senior School :
Nursery: Nursery children must be collected from the actual door of the Nursery itself.
Year 5 should be collected at 3pm from the front main exit gate of this school site at the side of the Vice Principal’s Office
Year 6 will be escorted by their teachers to the gate at the side of the Vice Principal’s Office of this school site where they can be collected.
Year 7 will be escorted to the main door at the front of the Senior School where they can be collected.
PLEASE NOTE:
We expect that all children (Nursery , Year 1, Year 2 and Year 3 ) will be collected by a responsible adult to ensure their safety going home from school. If your child is in Year 3-7 and you wish them to walk home by themselves then please indicate this to the class teacher via a little note. If you wish your child to be collected by taxi then you should send a note to the class teacher indicating this. For Child Protection and Safeguarding purposes we cannot release a child to any adult without parental consent. If a parent changes the usual method of collecting their child/children please contact the school to inform the relevant teacher(s) of the change. Thank you!
