Breakfast is served by wraparound childcare staff and consists of healthy cereals, fresh fruit, toast, muffins and bagels as well as a range of spreads. Fresh fruit juice, milk and water are available throughout the breakfast session, too.

Morning activities are aimed at encouraging a calm start to the school day and include reading, drawing, board games and the use of construction kits.

All children are escorted to their respective classrooms by wraparound childcare staff at the end of each morning session for a smooth transition into class.
