At Beeston Fields Primary and Nursery School we use an online journal called Tapestry. You will be able to access this at home once you have completed and signed the Tapestry Letter. You will be able to see you child/ren learning at school and be able to like and comment. You can even upload your own home learning so teachers can see. Any issues with Tapestry please do not hesitate to ask one of our members of staff.
Please seed below important information regarding Tapestry.
School Morning
School gates will be open by 8:45 am. The children can come straight into school between 8:45 - 9:00. They will head straight to their classroom to wash their hands.
Lunchtimes
Lunch is at 11:50 noon and is followed by a period of fun outside play, supervised by our midday supervisors. As we are a healthy school, please provide your child with a healthy lunchbox if your child is having a packed lunch.
Home time
Children will be dismissed at 3:25 pm from the back of school. Please wait on the astro turf for your child to be sent down the steps to you. If your children are being collected by a different adult on a particular day then the teacher must be informed. Without this, children will not be allowed to leave the school grounds.
