Timings of the Day

The Annett Building is open, with a member of staff on duty and in the Lower Years Playground, during morning break. Lunch is eaten in the Dining Hall between 11.55 am and 12.30 pm. Activities and clubs then take place during Long Break, which runs between 13.40 and 14.15. During Long Break, the School Library is open for supervised use, and Lower Years staff are again on duty around the Annett Building and Lower Years Playground.

After School, at 3.40pm pupils are free to go home, unless taking part in after-school clubs and activities. They may also join homework club until 5.50 pm Monday to Thursday and 5.30 pm on Friday. After this time, we ask that they leave the school premises. All pupils must be off the site by 6.00 pm unless they are under the direct supervision of a member of staff.
