St Gregory’s Primary School

Our School Day

ALL CLASSES DROP OFF:
All children to enter playground independently (without parents) via school office gate between 08:35-08:40

Children will enter classrooms at 08:40.


PLEASE at drop off and pick up times ensure that you are not blocking the pavement to enable children to get by. There have been some incidences where children have needed to step into the road to avoid others. This is extremely dangerous and can be avoided by everyone giving pedestrians space.

Please also park considerately for our neighbours along the road.  The Crown Pub are happy for parents to use their car park at both drop-off and pick-up.

If you are later than 08:45 please drop your child(ren) off at the main school entrance by the school office.

Thank you
