where they are parked. Car park attendants will be present to help with traffic flow and the safety of all car park users. Any pupil in Years 3-6 not collected by 4.30pm will be escorted to After School Care at the Boys’ Prep School until their parent/guardian arrives. If a pupil attends After School Care after the school day has finished, parents will be charged for this service. In the event of any Junior School pupil not being collected after a reasonable amount of time beyond the agreed pick-up time and when we are unable to contact an authorised collector, the school would consult the local authorities as to the best action to take in the circumstances, to safeguard the health and safety of the child. If your child is going home with another adult who is not an authorised collector, a written note or email must be sent in advance to the class teacher and Mrs Walsh, otherwise your daughter will not be released. We cannot allow your child to go with another parent unless you have specifically informed us. In an emergency, please phone the school with your change of arrangements. Coach Travel (Years 3-6) The coach service is run jointly with the Boys’ School and coaches arrive and leave from their coach park. The school employs a Transport Manager (Ms Emma Summers, based at the Boys’ School) who you can contact at the following email address if you have any questions or concerns: transportmanager@habsboys.org.uk For the first two weeks of the autumn term, arrangements are made for those Year 3 pupils travelling by coach to be met in the morning on arrival, from where they will be guided to the Junior School. After school, they will be escorted to the coach park at 4.05pm, to catch the 4.15pm coach. After an initial two-week period, pupils will make their way to the coach park unsupervised, using the pathways and crossings. Junior School pupils must be met by an adult at the coach stop at which they alight. All coach users are issued with a copy of the Coach Code of Conduct and must carry their coach ticket and a fully charged phone for use in the event of delays and/or emergencies. Safety on Site We would be grateful if you could reinforce the messages we are giving your daughter about road safety by always using the pathways and crossings. Please be aware of safety in the car park and only park in designated spaces as directed by the car park attendants. Please note: the school is a dog free site, including all car park areas.
