Dear Families

Welcome Back to School!

It was fantastic to see both new and returning students arriving at school, full of energy and excitement for the year ahead!

A sincere thank you to the School Association for providing coffee and pastries—a wonderful way for parents and friends to reconnect, meet new families, and strengthen our school community.

We also extend our gratitude to our incredible staff for their dedication and hard work in preparing the school for day one. The classrooms looked immaculate, creating a welcoming and inspiring space for our students to learn, grow, and thrive.

New Staff

We warmly welcome our new staff to our school community.

Collecting Students During School Hours

To ensure the safety and well-being of all students, all early pickups must go through the front office. Parents are not permitted to go directly to their child’s classroom, in accordance with our Safeguarding Children Management Plan.

If your child has a scheduled appointment, please notify both the office and their teacher in advance so we can have them ready for collection. For unplanned pickups, please check in at the front office, and we will arrange for your child to be brought to you.

Visitors, Volunteers & Parent Helpers

All visitors must sign in at the front office upon arrival. You will be provided with a Visitor Lanyard, which must be worn at all times while on school grounds.

All visitors assisting at our school, including parent helpers and excursion volunteers, must hold a current Working with Vulnerable People (WWVP) Card and complete the Safeguarding Training for Volunteers, which must be renewed annually. Links below.
