Morning Hort is provided for Primary students whose parents may need to bring their child to school before the morning line up and official registration of attendance is taken. Morning Hort is available from 08:00 until 08:25. It will nearly always be outside, unless bad weather in which case it will be held in the indoor Hort facilities.
Please note that children arriving before 08:00 cannot be supervised.
There is a drop off point to the rear of the school which is open for use every morning. Please drive carefully as children are outside playing and students may still be entering the premises.
Afternoon Hort is provided for Primary students whose parents are not able to pick them up at 15:00 (14:30 on Wednesdays) when the school day is officially over. Afternoon Hort closes at 17:00.
The children can choose between Hort activities and free play. Information about activities offered by Hort staff can be requested from members of the Hort team. Information about other extra-curricular school activities can be found here.
Please be aware of which activities your child will attend and on which days and inform anyone collecting your child which activity they are likely to be attending, especially if it is not run by Hort staff.
Children who are picked up must be signed out with the member of Hort staff at the Sign out table. If a student is picked up by a person who is not permanently authorised to do so, a written note signed by the student’s parent is needed. Parents should use the Hort Information Form to let Hort staff know who has permanent permission to pick their children up from school/Hort.
Hort rules and reward systems are the same as those used during the school day and are displayed in the Hort building. The children are all aware of these rules.
