Morning Routine
School begins each morning with our pupils and teachers gathering in the playground to complete one lap of the playground and to recite the school pledge:
I am fearfully and wonderfully made in the image of God.
Therefore, I will be courteous,
I will be healthy,
I will be respectful,
I will be studious,
Because I am being educated for eternity!
Following registration, all pupils must attend school worship for a session of praise, prayer, thanksgiving, pupil recognition and a health/spiritual presentation before separating the various classes according to the timetable.
Friendly competition is introduced as each pupil joins a school house on enrolment: King, Latimer, Mandela, Seacole. The system fosters team-work, creativity and a community spirit. Children are encouraged to use their creativity, thinking skills and learning to achieve as many house points as they can!
Students must be in full uniform at all times. Incorrect tops, trainers and footwear (other than black or brown) are unacceptable. Please refer to uniform list. Students failing to wear the full school uniform must present a written letter/note from their parent (s) at morning registration. If a student is incorrectly dressed twice, (consecutively) without permission, the student will be sent home with a letter. Students are to travel to school in their full uniform.
Apart from watches jewellery should not be worn in school. Make-up, nail varnish or French manicure must not be worn on the school premises. Hair must be neat, tidy and well combed.
Weekly swimming lessons are provided by a qualified instructor. All students from Reception to Year 9 are to participate in this aspect of the school’s curriculum.
We encourage all students to learn a musical instrument. We have employed professional peripatetic Music Tutors. We currently offer: guitar, piano, drums & voice. Tuition fees are to be paid a month in advance. Music tuition will be added to the school fees.
The school provides wholesome vegetarian meals at very reasonable prices, however, students are welcome to bring packed lunches (vegetarian foods only – no sweets, chocolates or carbonated drinks).
