Year 6 Uniform Reminder

Dear Parents,

As our fabulous Year 6 students get ready for their big leap to secondary school, it is time for a uniform check-in. We want them looking sharp, taking pride in their appearance, and setting a great example, especially during the holy month of Ramadan.

Please ensure your child is adhering to the following uniform expectations:

  • Skirt Length – Keep it classy, not too short. Skirts should be a respectable length in line with school guidelines. Mid thigh.
  • Footwear – Smart, black shoes only (except on sports days, when white or black trainers are permitted).
  • Earrings – Only simple stud earrings are allowed, Hoops may look stylish, but they are not part of our uniform policy.

Let us set them up with good habits now before secondary school raises the bar on uniform standards. By working together, we can prepare our students for their next adventure while helping them develop pride and respect for their school community.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Regards,

VHPS Team

School Kerbside Drop-Off

Dear Parents/Guardians,

We look forward to welcoming our VHPS community on Monday 26th August. To ensure smooth traffic flow and the safety of our students, we kindly request that all parents and guardians follow these drop-off and parking instructions:

One-Way System:

Please adhere to the one-way system indicated on the map (attached) when navigating around the school. This system is designed to maintain an efficient traffic flow around the school premises and ensure the safety of all children and adults. 

What Gate?

Children in Year 1 and 2 should use Gate 2 for drop-off. Children in Years 3-6 should be dropped off at Gate 4.

Siblings:

If you have multiple children attending the school, please drop them off at the first designated stop to avoid making two separate stops.

Be ‘Bag Ready’:

Ensure your child has their bag/s ready when exiting the vehicle. This helps expedite the drop-off process and reduces delays. Parents are not required to exit the car. Our school staff will be present to assist children with safely exiting the vehicle.

Restricted Site Access:

Parents are not allowed on the school site at drop-off*. All children should be dropped off using kerbside drop-off or, alternatively, at the school gate on foot. This measure is in place for the safety and security of all students.

Year 1 Parents:

Parents of Year 1 students are welcome to drop their children off directly at the classroom. Please park by Grandiose Supermarket or the sand area opposite Gate 2 for this purpose. Starting from the October half-term, Year 1 parents will drop off children at Gate 2.

Encouraging Drop-Off:

We strongly encourage all parents of children in Years 2-6 to utilise the drop-off system. Parking space is limited, and site entry is restricted, making the drop-off system the most efficient and convenient option.

Thank you for your cooperation in following these guidelines. They are designed to ensure the safety and well-being of all students and to maintain a smooth traffic flow around the school premises. Your understanding and support are greatly appreciated.

*With the exception of Year 1 parents until the October half-term.

Many thanks,

The VHPS Team
