Tea & Tissues 

During Week 1, Nursery parents are warmly invited to join our Tea & Tissues gathering after morning drop-off. 

This informal session is an opportunity to meet other parents, chat with members of our Early Years team, and enjoy a cup of tea while your child settles into school. 

Meet the Teacher 

Individual 15-minute Meet the Teacher appointments will be available: 

• Dates: Wednesday 19 August – Friday 21 August  
• Time: 1:00pm–3:00pm  

Booking information will be shared directly by your child's class teacher. 

Week 2 (24–28 August) 

• School hours: 7:30am–2:35pm  
• Please bring your child's bedding on Monday, 24 August.  
• Teachers will work closely with families to determine when each child is ready to stay for the full day and participate in rest time.  

Every child settles at their own pace, and a flexible approach will be taken to support a smooth transition. 

Week 3 Onwards 

From Monday, 31 August, Nursery students will follow the normal school schedule.

Tuesday, 18 August 2026 (9:00am – 12.00pm) 

Please arrive between 9:00am and 9:30am. The programme will start at 9:30am sharp. 

All adults must wear a DCBK parent lanyard. If you forgot your lanyard, or have not yet been issued a lanyard, please contact our Reception team at the Village Center lobby to receive a Visitor badge. 

Students will follow a student program with their class teachers, while parents will follow a parent program at our Sports Hall with the CLT. We kindly ask that families bring a maximum of TWO adults per family.  

What to wear: Students will wear full school uniform on Orientation Day. Parents, please avoid high heels as activities will take place in our Sports Hall. 

We recommend that all families joining in Term 2 or Term 3 complete their OpenApply checklist as soon as possible. 

Although your child will not begin school until later in the academic year, completing these forms early helps us prepare for your arrival and ensures everything is ready before your start date. 

As children grow quickly, we recommend booking your Uniform Day appointment closer to your child's entry date to ensure the best fit for uniforms. 

You will also be invited to a dedicated New Family Orientation before your child's first day of school. Further information will be shared with you nearer the time.
