We still have students arriving at school as early as 8.00am. This is an issue as staff do not commence yard duty until 8.20am so students are unsupervised and potentially unsafe. Similarly we have children waiting as late as 3:45 pm to be collected when yard duty supervision ceases at 3:30pm. We accept there are times when parents get caught in traffic or a meeting. When this occurs please call the office with an estimated time of arrival as many students become anxious when they are the only students left waiting.

The school has an excellent Out of School Hours Care programme that is very reasonably priced. Please consider this option if your child is regularly early to school or late being collected.
