    Daily Routine

    The school is open from 8 am and students should arrive at school no later than 8.45 am so that they have time to organise themselves and be punctual for the start of the school day. The Library is open from 8 am to 5 pm for students who wish to read, do homework or research subjects in print or on the Internet; the Library closes at 4 pm on Fridays.
