Below you will find the structure of our school days. You can see a more
specific timetable under your child’s teacher tab.
A Day at Larwood School
At Larwood School, we provide a structured yet engaging daily routine for our pupils. Each day begins with important morning activities that help children settle and prepare for learning.
Morning Activities
Most mornings start with Circle Time or individualised soft starts, giving pupils the opportunity to share thoughts and prepare for the day ahead. Daily phonics sessions help develop essential reading skills, while numeracy fluency activities build mathematical confidence.
Special Assemblies
Our week features several special assemblies:
- Monday mornings feature our Singing Assembly, where pupils come together to enjoy
music - Tuesday mornings include our Topic Assembly, focusing on curriculum themes
- Friday mornings start with our Praise Assembly, celebrating pupils' achievements
Subject Learning
Throughout the week, pupils engage with a varied curriculum including:
- History and Geography sessions
- Science exploration
- PSHE (Personal, Social, Health and Economic education)
- French language learning
- Music, including Djembe drumming sessions
Additional Enrichment
Our programme is enhanced by:
- Weekly Forest School sessions, providing outdoor learning experiences
- Skills development on Thursdays
- Friday rewards to recognise positive behaviour and achievements
Breaks and Lunch
The school day includes appropriate breaks in the afternoons and a lunch period from 11:30
to 12:30, giving children time to refuel, socialise and enjoy recreational activities.
This balanced approach ensures our pupils receive a well-rounded education that nurtures
academic progress alongside personal development.
The school maintains a framework of time events in order to provide a
secure structure for every day:
