The total time the school is open in a typical week is 34 hours. This time runs from the official start of the school day (morning registration) to the official end of the compulsory school day. It includes breaks, but not optional before or after school activities.
The timings for Nursery (Duckling Class) slightly differ and information about these sessions has been shared directly with Duckling Class families.
