School Opening Times

Our gates open at 8:30am and you can enter via the pedestrian gate on Newcastle Road, the small pedestrian gate on School Lane or the large gate on School Lane (just after Pre-school). Classroom doors open at 8:35am.

Children in Reception can be dropped off at the gate to their outdoor area. The closest gate is the large School Lane gate, but you can walk down the side of the school building if entering through gates at the front of school.

Children in Y1, can be dropped off at their classroom door at the side of school (opposite the hall) which can be accessed by either gate.

Children in Y2 and Y4 can be dropped off at their classroom doors at the back of school, near the School House building and access is easiest via the large gate on School Lane, but you can walk around the school building if entering from Newcastle Road.

Children in Y3 can be dropped off through the door in the middle of the Y2 and Y4 door at the back of school.
