Bright Stars Information

Bright Stars is open between 7:30 and 17:30; please drop off and pick up your children at the front gate. 

To ensure cleaning can be done for the following day it is essential that your child is picked up at 17:30 at the latest. 

We will endeavour to keep children in their bubbles or phases as much as possible, but please be aware that there may be times when the children cross bubbles. 

We have a tracking system in school to record the children and adult interactions, this will be used to inform us which bubbles or classes would be affected should we have a positive case in school.
