Dear Parents and Carers,
RE: School Timings, Autumn 1 2022
Welcome back, I hope everyone has had an enjoyable summer.
Just a reminder of the start and finish times at school.
No gates will be opened until 8:35am, please do not arrive before this time unless accessing Breakfast Club. If you arrive early and gates are locked children from Reception to Year 4 must remain supervised and not playing in the road.
Once gates are open children in Year 5 and Year 6 have what we call a soft start and walk themselves up to their classrooms to do early work. Year 3 and Year 4 line up in the main playground (they should not use play equipment or run around).
Year 2 children access and leave school through the Dallas Road gates. The timings are the same. In the morning children are lined up in the Year 1 playground and are supervised. There is no need for the parents to enter the playground or wait once their child has lined up.
Year 1 children walk with parents into the main playground and wait with parents/carers until the Year 1 classroom doors are opened.
Reception children walk with parents to the classroom doors.
Teaching starts at 8:45am.
Children who arrive after 8:45am are late and will miss elements of learning as well as disrupt the learning of others.
Gates will close shortly after 8:45am and all children must then enter school via the main school office.
Please adjust your morning routines and journey times to school to ensure your child is not late.
Children are dismissed from school at 3:15pm except in Nursery where it is 3:25pm.
Children in Reception and Year 1 are released from the classroom doors, all other children are dismissed from their playground by their teachers.
All information about school times is on the school website School Organisation – Kelvin Grove School.
