A Day at St Mary's/Opening Times

We operate a soft opening in the morning - to help ease the traffic on the main road. The school doors are open from 8.45 for the children to come into school and begin a morning activity to get their brains warmed up for their learning.

In the chart please see the start and end times of the school day.

Our school week equates to 32.5 hours or 6.5 hours a day.

Masks

The guidance set out by the government states that there is no longer a requirement to wear masks. We appreciate that some children may wear masks on the way to school, especially if travelling on public transport. Please ensure that children are able to remove their mask safely upon arrival to school and have a place to store the mask e.g. coat pocket or bag. Staff are unable to help children with masks. You may wish to take their mask home with you.
