Academic Year 2024/2025
Opening and closing times
For pupils, the school day begins at 8.45am and ends at 3.30pm.
As the evenings get longer and the days get shorter in the winter, we finish early on a Friday to prepare for Shabbat. So, from October half term until we return to school after the Pesach holidays the school day ends at 1.30pm on Fridays.
Winter/Summer Fridays:
From Friday 1st November school will close at 1.30pm
From Friday 25th April school will close at 3.30pm
