Dear parents/carers
We would like to thank everyone for their ongoing support through the Autumn term so far. As a school we have been working hard to ensure children feel settled within school and we have felt that the staggered times that the children arrive at has helped towards this.
As the weather is beginning to change as a school, we feel it is time to alter the start and end times for the children within St Mary’s. The new times (as stated below) will begin from Monday 23rd November.
To avoid congestion and maintain social distancing at these busy times, the start and end of the day we will continue to be staggered with children arriving/leaving in alphabetical order according to their surname. However, we will be changing the times slightly. Can we remind all adults that they need to be maintaining social distancing at all times and will need to wear a face covering on the playground (if you are exempt please make yourself known to a member of school staff).
We would ask that parents follow the start and finish times outlined below:-
Year |
AM Group |
PM group |
Nursery |
8.40-11.40 |
12.30-3.00 |
If your child’s surname begins with: |
Old drop off time |
New drop off time |
Old collection time |
New collection time |
A-G |
8.30 |
8.40 |
3.00 |
3.00 |
H-M |
8.45 |
8.50 |
3.15 |
3.10 |
N-Z |
9.00 |
9.00 |
3.30 |
3.20 |
It is vitally important that children arrive ON TIME each morning and are collected promptly at the end of the day. If a child is late and the children have already entered the building, then you must go to the office. They must not arrive before their allocated time each morning.
If you have any questions, please contact the school office.
Yours faithfully
