Considerate parking at drop off and pick up times

We kindly ask all parents and carers to park safely and responsibly when dropping off or collecting children from school. Please be mindful of our local residents by avoiding blocking driveways, parking on verges, or causing obstructions. Let’s work together to ensure everyone’s safety and maintain positive relationships with our community. Thank you for your cooperation!

✅ Install a water wall to spark curiosity in science and problem-solving.

✅ Develop a gardening and outdoor investigation area to help children connect with nature.

✅ Provide outdoor mark-making equipment to inspire creativity, writing, and drawing.
