Welcome Pack Booklet - Reception Starters 2024-25

This booklet is designed to support parents and carers working in partnership with our Early Years Team to ensure your child’s start in their Reception class is a positive and pleasurable experience that will give them the best of starts on their journey through school with us.

SCHOOL DAY TIMINGS

START OF THE SCHOOL DAY

The doors into school for the Reception classes open at 8:45am. To

keep all of our children safe we ask that children do not arrive before

this time and are supervised by an adult at all times until they are

welcomed into their classrooms. Access into and out of the

Reception classrooms are solely through the doors from the

undercover outside space. We ask parents to come in through these

doors only and to leave the same way.

This year the arrangements are that all children will start

full time from Monday 9th September

We have an experienced team who are skilled in supporting our

youngest learners in this huge step of joining ‘big school’ and are

looking forward to working with your child on the start of their school

journey!

Whilst this will suit the majority of our children, you as parents and families

are obviously the people who know your child best. If you have any

concerns at all about your child starting full time, please speak to a

member of the team at the taster sessions. We are keen to personalise

the transition experience to meet the needs of all of our individual

children and families.

END OF THE SCHOOL DAY

School finishes at 3:05pm.

At the end of the school day children will be released from their

classrooms via the doors onto the undercover outside space. We will

do this one at a time, as we see parents, in order to ensure that

everyone is safe.
