School+Hours

=__**SCHOOL HOURS **__﻿=

School starts at 8.25am
We suggest that you bring your child to school by 8.15 am. This gives them tine to organise their reading book, school bag, lunches and working space. This is a valuable time for your child to talk and interact with their teachers and peers before the day starts.

﻿Morning Tea 9.50-10.10am

 * Before having morning tea the class are asked to go to the toilet and wash their hands.
 * Children sit outside Room 4 to eat their morning tea for ten minutes and are dismissed by the duty teacher who checks their lunch box.
 * If the weather is cold and wet students can sit inside the room on the vinyl areas to protect our carpets. Senior students are wet day monitors and keep a caring eye on what is happening in Room 4.
 * The last ten minutes of morning tea is for children to have a chance to play and mix and mingle with their peers.

Lunch 12.00-12.50 pm

 * All children again wash their hands before eating.
 * Children are expected to sit while they eat their lunch. A second bell is rung and children put up their hands to have the duty teacher dismiss them after looking at their lunch boxes to ensure they have eaten enough.

School ends at 2.25pm

 * At the end of the day all children will be taken to the front entrance of the school.
 * Parents are asked to wait at the front entrance to minimise delays and confusion in the class. We have a routine we follow each day and it is imperative that we make no mistakes with students at the end of our busy day.
 * Children travelling by bus leave the class first following the bus monitor.
 * Children travelling by car will be taken to the front entrance by the class teacher.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Children staying at After School Care join their care givers by going to Room 6 quickly at the end of the day.
