The School Day
All classrooms are open and children welcomed by teachers and teaching assistants from 8.55am to 9.10am each morning. This ensures a calm and orderly start to the day. Unaccompanied children should not arrive at school before 8.55 am.

Break and Lunch-time
Children should only bring a healthy snack, for break time, such as a piece of fruit, carrot or cherry tomatoes. The school provides a free healthy snack, each day, for all children in EYFS and KS1.
Children may bring a packed lunch to school or may have a hot dinner from a choice of dishes. School dinners should be paid for in advance but we will never deprive a child of lunch should you forget to do so.
You can find out more about the school meal service from the Lunchtime Co . On this site you will find information on current menus, nutritional content, local sourcing information and advice on special diets.
Money should be paid online through your Arbor account. Any parent who thinks that their child may be entitled to free meals should ask at the school office for an application form and to discuss it in confidence.
School Closures
Any decision to close school due to weather conditions is taken only after consideration of the safety of pupils and staff both on the school site and in travelling to and from school. Should winter weather mean that school has no option but to close, we will update the school answering machine and send a Arbor message as early as possible and also put a notice on the entrance and inform local radio stations (BBC Radio Cambridgeshire, Heart FM).
