    Important Information

    Click here for our locker policy

    We have changed to a two week cycle. Each term begins with Week A, next year on the 28th January (when teachers start) so, the following week when the students return it will be Week B. Longer periods mean that there are only four (4) periods per day. Note, however, the starting time is now 8:50 A.M. and school finishes at 3:00 P.M. except Tuesdays.

    Tuesdays have shorter periods because it includes both our Assembly and sport. School finishes after sport at 2:30 P.M.

    A copy of our timetable may be downloaded from here.

    NOTE: Every term begins with Week A whether or not the previous term finished on a Week A or Week B.
