Arrival and Dismissal of Pupils

Please note that this procedure has not yet been ratified by the Board of Management. We are trialling our procedures and hope to have a procedure document ratified during the 2014/15 school year.


Morning Assembly
  • Junior Infant pupils are collected by their teacher from the front door of the school at 8.30am each morning. 
  • Children in older classes - Senior Infants, 1st and 2nd classes - are collected by their teacher from the school yard at 8.30am each morning.

Children should arrive at school between 8.30 and 8.40am each morning.

Parents/guardians should wait with their children until they have been collected by the teacher and then leave promptly as the car parking spaces are needed by the other school and pre-school on our campus.

Afternoon Dismissal
  • Junior Infant pupils are collected from their classroom at 1.10pm each day.
  • Children in Eldon's Senior Infants class are collected from the front entrance hall of the school at 1.10pm. Those collecting a child from this class should form a line against the glass wall so that parents of children in other classes can get past.
  • Children in Anita's Senior Infants class are collected from the bottom of the stairwell at 1.10pm. Those collecting a child from this class should form a line along the wall leading to the stairs, so that other parents can get past on one side and so that after-school classes can proceed on the other.
  • Children in 1st and 2nd class meet their parents, guardians and other collectors in the front entrance hall of the school at 2.10pm.

The school does not accept responsibility for children before 8.30am or after 1.10pm for children in Infant classes and 2.10pm in 1st/2nd class.
