Our School Day
EYFS and Key Stage One
Our day starts at 8:30am, when the school gates open. Teachers take the register and we say our morning prayer at 8:55am before lessons start at 9am. Typically, we complete Maths (based around the Maths Mastery approach), English (using elements of Pie Corbett's Talk for Writing) and Phonics (Little Wandle). Three times a week we also attend assembly - further information about our Collective Worship can be found in the Catholic Life and Mission section of our website. At 11am, we have breaktime on our EYFS outside area or our infant playground. At 11:15am, we return to learning in class. Lunchtime begins at 11:45am for our EYFS children and between 11:55am and 12:10pm for Year 1 and Year 2.
After lunch, we return to our classrooms at 1:05pm, ready for our afternoon learning. Each week, we spend 2 1/2 hours of our learning time finding out more about Catholicism in our RE work. We also use our afternoon learning time to find out more about our STM Curriculum topics. We are dismissed from class at 3:05pm onto the infant playground. This equates to approximately 32 1/2 hours in a typical week.
