Elmhurst School is a busy, bustling community that comes together every week day from as early as 7:30am when our before school care begins. Elmhurst’s Breakfast Club runs daily, allowing busy parents to drop their children off from 7.30am each morning where they boys and girls will get a chance to chat with friends and eat breakfast before getting on with their school day.
School day timings
The school gates open at 8:15am every morning with school beginning at 8:40am sharp.
Our extensive car park facilitates an easy run into school and the school gates are always manned by a senior member of staff every day. Registers are taken on arrival so parents can head off knowing their precious cargos are accounted for.
To ease congestion and ensure the smooth flow of traffic at pick up time, we have adopted a staggered system with year groups leaving at the following times:
| Class | Pick up times |
|---|---|
| Little Elms (AYR) | 6:00pm |
| Little Elms (TTO) | 3:00pm |
| Reception | 3:10pm |
| Year 1 | 3:15pm |
| Year 2- Year 3 | 3:30pm |
| Year 4 – Year 6 | 3:40pm |
The timings are subject to change when the children are taking part in activities that go beyond the normal end of day but parents will be notified in advance.
Elmhurst offers wrap around care from 7:30am – 8:15am with Breakfast Club and After School Club from 3:10pm-6pm. This includes Sibling Club (3pm-4pm). For more information, please see our Wraparound Care page.
