THE SCHOOL DAY AT NAISR

At Nord Anglia International School Rotterdam, every moment is filled with extraordinary learning experiences, which are carefully planned around a structured school day.

Our students’ day officially starts at 8:10 am and runs until 3:05 pm (our Foundation 1 and 2 children finish at 12:00 pm on Wednesdays). The school office is open daily from 7:45 am until 5:30 pm, except Fridays, the office closes at 4pm.

Morning drop-off

All primary students are dropped off at our back playground between 7:50 and 8:10 every morning (please note, there isn’t any supervision for students before 7:50 am). When the bell rings, students line up by year and their teachers picks them up and walks them inside the building.

Our secondary students have a Core Values Programme (CVP) or homeroom teacher. Students report to their teacher for the first 30 minutes of each day.

Students should arrive in their homeroom for registration at 8:10 am.

Lunch
Every student has a 45-minute lunch break, as well as recess periods during the day. Students in Foundation 1 have lunch in their classrooms at 12:00. Students from Foundation 2 through Year 6 have lunch at 12:00 and then recess until 12:45. Secondary students have their lunch from 12:45 until 13:30.

Rest time in the early years
We support the aims of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum by providing quiet time for our Foundation 1 and 2 classes after lunch.

Afternoon pick-up
All Primary Students should be picked up from the back playground in the afternoon at 15:05. Parents will be called if students are not collected by 15:15. They will be brought to the library and supervised until 15:30 or until parents arrive. Parents need to supervise their children at all times after school hours.

After-school care and activities
Students can stay on campus after the school day finishes if they’re registered either for our after-school care service or our after-school activities.

Our after-school enrichment programme offers a wealth of outstanding opportunities for students of all ages, including sport, music, and our Skill Development Sessions.
