Morning registration is at 8.30am at the start of lesson one, so students need to be in school by at least 8.20am. Lesson five ends at 3.00pm. However, many students stay longer to take advantage of ICT and the Learning Resources Centre which stay open after school, or to participate in a wide range of extra-curricular activities.
