Across the week
Wednesday is a longer project block.
Wednesday afternoons include a rotating 1:45–3:00 studio or project block. A class might use it to finish a science investigation, rehearse a performance or work across a longer art lesson. The rest of the week combines daily core work with scheduled specialist classes.
The blocks shown here describe the usual rhythm; teachers share the class timetable and any changes through family communication.
