School Start and Finish times

We kindly remind all parents and guardians to please ensure that children are dropped off and picked up within our school’s operating hours. Arriving on time helps children settle into their day, attend all of their classes, and maintain continuity in their learning.

Timely pick-up at the end of the day is equally important, as it allows us to operate safely and responsibly within our scheduled hours. Your cooperation plays a vital role in supporting your child’s education and ensuring a smooth day for everyone.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership.
