Details regarding the timing for the service are as follows:
Service starts: 8.00 am

Breakfast is served to pupils until 8.40 am. Pupils enter at the side door of the hall, register attendance, and eat breakfast under adult supervision.
Access to the playground: 8.45 am - 9.00 am. Pupils leave the dining hall and go to the playground and mix with pupils who have not attended the breakfast service unless the weather is bad when they will remain in the hall.

The adult supervision element is reduced at this time of the day to a patrol function performed by our Janitor and a member of our Pupil Support team.
