School Attendance
Good attendance and punctuality are essential for the best academic outcomes in school. The children when arriving on time with their peers are also more content and settled throughout the day. It also teaches the children the expectations for their whole life at work. Our attendance policy can be found on the policies page.
School Day
The school day for all children is from 0840 - 1510 hours daily. This equates to 32 hours and 30 minutes for all children weekly. Registers close at 8:50am.

Where there are medical appointments during the school day, the school will require sight of the medical appointment card or a text from the service stating the time and date of the appointment.
