Campus & Routine FAQs

Everything you need to know about the school day.

What are the operating hours for Linden and Olivedale?

Both campuses follow the same operating hours: we open at 06:30 for early arrivals and close promptly at 18:00. This ensures maximum flexibility for working parents at both locations.

To ensure your child doesn’t miss out on vital social and learning time, we ask that all students are dropped off by 08:15. This allows them to finish breakfast and settle in for the Morning Ring at 08:30.

Half-day students are ready for collection at 12:45, immediately following lunch and story time. This ensures they complete the full educational curriculum before heading home.

Yes, full-day students can be collected anytime during the afternoon. However, we recommend avoiding the 13:00 – 14:00 nap window to ensure all children have a peaceful and restorative rest period.
