It is expected that all students will be at school at least 10 minutes before classes begin, so that they can unpack and be ready to start the day. Important messages and reminders are given in the first 5 minutes of the day in classrooms, so students who regularly come to school late, miss these sessions and are disadvantaged enormously. Bell times and explanations are as follows:
8:40 am – Start of School Day
11:00 am – Start of Lunch
11:45 am – End of Lunch
1:05 pm – Start of Recess
1:35 am – End of Recess
2:55 pm – End of School Day
