Bell times

Our school day is structured around a clear timetable. We have set times for learning sessions, activities and lunch. Understanding the bell times helps students get the most out of each part of the day.

It's important for students to arrive on time each day. If your child is running late, please contact our front office.

Before and After School care (OOSH) is available outside school hours.

Crunch&Sip

What is Crunch&Sip®?

Crunch&Sip® is a set time during the school day for children to crunch on fruit and vegetables and sip water in the classroom. At Ermington West PS we schedule Crunch&Sip for during the morning session.

What you need to do:

To be involved in Crunch&Sip®, please send your child to school with a water bottle and some ready-to-eat fruit or vegetables.

Why it matters:

Developing healthy habits can help children have better health and wellbeing throughout life. It can also help them do their best at school. Research suggests children who eat a healthy diet including fruit and vegetables are more likely to:

• concentrate better and remember more
• perform better academically

• have better mental health.

School attendance

Regular attendance has countless benefits for your child’s learning and development. Parents play an important role in ensuring students get to school and stay in school every day.
