Welcome to the Two Mile Hill Infant School website.
How Do I Apply For A Place At Two Mile Hill Infant School? |
|
Children usually begin in the Reception classes in the September of the academic year in which they are five years old but later entry is also possible.
Admission forms are available from the school office from the previous September.
We are currently able to take 75 children in each school year. If there are not enough places available Bristol Education Authority will select children according to a number of criteria.
If your application is not successful, an appeal can be made against the decision. |
What Happens At The End Of Year 2? |
|
Your child will move to a Junior School at the end of Year 2, in the September after their 7th Birthday. You must apply for a place at a Junior School.
Further information on the procedure is available at the start of Year 2. |

School Times |
|
Punctuality is important to us and to your child. When a child arrives late they will miss vital learning. Arriving late can be stressful for children and make it difficult for them to concentrate on their work.
In the morning Staff are ready to welcome children from 8.45 am. Parents/carers are welcome to bring their children into school each morning. For safety reasons we ask that buggies and prams are left outside the building where they are quite safe.
Picking up your child promptly at the end of the day is also important. We know, however, that occasionally delays do happen, so please ring us if you are held up and we will make sure that your child stays safely in school.
All schools, including Two Mile Hill, have security measures to ensure that strangers are not able to enter school without permission. Our gates close at 9.15am, so anyone arriving after that time must use the main entrance. |

Religious Education |
|
How is Religious Education taught?
Religious Education is taught throughout the school according to the Bristol Agreed Syllabus. Children learn about Christianity and other religious faiths to foster understanding and respect. Our daily assembly provides an opportunity for children and staff to meet together as a school community. We use this time to think about social and moral issues which are central to all faiths and cultures. A strong emphasis is placed on the understanding of right and wrong and the value of respect and tolerance of the beliefs of others. We learn about ways to share and care for the world in which we all live.
If you wish to withdraw your child from all or any part of RE or from assembly, please contact the Head teacher. |

School Uniform/Equipment |
|
Wearing a school uniform gives children a pride in their appearance and a sense of belonging. Therefore the children are encouraged to wear the following items of clothing.
Royal blue is the main uniform colour at Two Mile Hill.
We ask that children wear a white or blue t-shirt/polo shirt with grey or black trousers or skirts. Sweatshirts, fleeces, cardigans, polo and t-shirts printed with the school logo are available from the school office.
Boys |
Girls |
Black or Grey trousers |
Black or Grey skirt / pinafore / trousers |
White or blue t-shirt / polo shirt |
White or blue t-shirt / polo shirt / blouse |
Blue sweatshirt |
Blue cardigan / sweatshirt |
Here is an example of some children wearing their uniform.
Shoes should be low-heeled and give support around the instep and heels. Shoes that slip off easily are dangerous especially on stairs and in the playground.
All clothing must be clearly labelled. The school cannot accept responsibility for accidental damage to clothing.
For PE children wear t-shirt and shorts or leotard. Daps are worn for outside PE in the summer term. We ask that you provide a clearly named drawstring bag to keep PE kit in and also a book bag in order that reading books may be safely carried between home and school. |

Lost Property |
|
If you find that your child has lost an item belonging to them it will normally be found by asking in class or by checking the cloakroom. If this fails to reunite your child with their property then check the Lost Property box in the hall. Remember that if all items of clothing are clearly named it will make returning lost items a lot easier. | |
