Lunch Time
Children should bring packed lunches to be eaten in the class room. These should be brought in containers clearly labelled with your child's name. We request that all lunch-boxes are the box-type - no backpacks. Please try to provide a balanced meal for your child. (Chocolates and fizzy drinks are not allowed). Drinks should not be brought in glass containers or cans.
Attendance and absences
The School has a legal responsibility to record all absences. If your child is away, please send a note with the returning child to explain the absence. Please inform the school if the absence is likely to be longer than a week. We would prefer you not to make medical appointments (such as dental check ups) during school time, but if this cannot be avoided (such as a hospital appointment) please inform the class teacher before the date of the appointment.
It is important that children arrive at school on time. Lateness may not only upset your child, it may encourage your child into bad time-keeping habits for later in life.
If parents wish to withdraw their child from school for a long period, it may not be assumed that such a leave of absence will be authorised. In such a case the parents should write requesting permission for authorised leave, to the Headteacher.
For the sake of your child, please ensure that attendance is regular and punctual.
