Daily Schedule
Our school day balances learning, play and nutrition, ensuring students stay engaged and energised.
School starts
8:55 AM
School begins at 8:55 AM with a 5-minute “Do Now” activity – a short, engaging task that students complete at the beginning of a class to prepare them for learning. The roll is marked at 9:00 AM. If your child arrives after the roll has been marked, they should go straight to the Office to be signed in and receive a Late Pass for their teacher; otherwise, they will be marked absent for the day.
Fruit Snack
10:00 AM
We encourage students to bring an extra fruit or veggie snack each day for a quick break around 10:00 AM, depending on their class schedule. Please pack fresh fruit or vegetables that your child can easily eat while continuing their learning.
Lunch Break
11:00 AM to 12:00 PM
Our school’s early lunchtime ensures students have the breaks they need while still allowing enough time for essential learning sessions.
Recess
2:00 PM to 2:30 PM
Students are encouraged to bring a small, healthy snack for recess to keep their energy up and stay focused for the rest of the day.
School ends
3:30 PM
Pickup is promptly at 3:30 PM when the school day ends. Before and after-school care is available through Kingston Council in the Southmoor Hall with casual bookings required 24 hours in advance.
Important!
To support the health and safety of all students, especially those with allergies, food sharing is strongly discouraged at Southmoor. We ask families to be mindful of allergy risks and strongly recommend avoiding nuts in packed lunches.
