Staff members provide playground supervision before / after school, recess and during lunch play /eating time. Children with special needs are supported by additional supervision as required.

Students begin their day promptly at 8:40 a.m. With that in mind, it is beneficial for your child to arrive by 8:35 a.m.

When inclement weather dictates, children are supervised inside at playtime.

We do encourage all children to dress for the weather, whatever it may be. It is also important that children are dressed to be comfortable outdoors in case
of an emergency such as a fire or earthquake.
