Term Dates and the School Day

Attendance

We expect children to be in school on time every day, ready to learn. Please see our Attendance and Punctuality Policy on this website. 

Communication

We believe clear, effective, two-way communication between home and school is a great way to support your child's learning in their early school years. You are welcome to contact the school office to make an appointment to talk with your child's class teacher. 

We use a variety of communication apps to help parents, carers and other supporters keep in touch with our busy school. (Please read our Privacy notice)

Integris is the school's MIS and we use this to send emails directly to parents/carers. 

We produce a regular newsletter, packed with important notices and dates to enable you to plan for events coming up. This is posted on our website and an email link is sent to parents/carers.

Please contact school if you need a free paper copy of any of our information.
