Burrsville Infant Academy

Create a Joy in Learning For Every Child

Our School Day

Our school gates open at 8:30am for early morning work to start and registration is from 8:40 am to 8:50 am. All children must be in school by 8:40am.

Our school day finishes at 3:10 pm, with the gates opening at 3:05 - 3:15pm.

There are three gates to access the school: A green gate at the front of the school, a gate at the back of the school field leading to Pickers Ditch and a gate between us and the Junior School.

KS1 Morning playtime

We have a fifteen minute break each morning usually between 10.15 am until 10.30 am.  Children are encouraged to eat a piece of fruit for their snack.  Fruit is provided by the school.

Lunch

Our lunchtime begins at 12.00 with the Early Years children having their lunch first followed by Year 1 and Year2.

Drop off and collection

Children are dropped off and collected from their outside classroom doors. After school on Tuesdays we have 'open house' sessions where you can pop into your child's classroom to see their work or have a chat with their class teacher. This helps to build up a close relationship between home and school - we want to have good links with all parents. If normal arrangements have to be altered (eg you are delayed or another person is collecting your child), please let us know. This avoids confusion or upset.

Getting to school

To get to and from school, walking is definitely the best option!  There are lots of benefits:  it's healthier than travelling by car, it improves the safety of pedestrians and road-users, and it respects nearby residents and parking regulations.  Alternatively, we have bike-racks.  If you do need to travel by car, please park wisely.
