The City School

The nuts and bolts.

The small practical things that make the day run smoothly: where to park, when the day starts and ends, what to send, and who to call. Read this once and the rest of the year takes care of itself.

Getting here

The family car park, on soi Torsak

For families who self-drive only: there is no car park for families with drivers. Soi Torsak runs alongside the ELC offices opposite the school, and the car park is about 50 metres down on the right.

Easy Parking, on Thong Lor 13

A second option if you self-drive: 32 Akkhara Phat Alley, opposite Nihonmura and beside KC Court on soi 49/13. A two minute walk to school.

SOI

The back entrance on soi 53

Drop-off and pick-up only: there is no parking here, and car access beyond soi Renoo is for local residents only. Please follow our guards' directions so every family walks the short distance to the doorway safely. Bikes may park at the back gate during drop-off and pick-up.

How drop-off and hometime run

The rhythm of the day and who may collect your child live on the arrival page.

The school day

TIME

School day times, kindergarten

K1 runs 8:15 to 13:00, or to 14:30 with extended hours. K2 runs 8:00 to 14:30.

TIME

School day times, primary

Y1 to Y3 run 8:00 to 15:00 every day. Y4 to Y6 run 8:00 to 15:00 on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and 8:00 to 16:00 on Tuesday and Thursday.

Snacks and lunches

The school provides a balanced snack each day, and families provide lunch. Label lunches clearly with your child's name and class, especially if delivering to school. Delivery times: kindergarten to Y1 at 11:30, Y2 to Y6 at 11:45.

PE and swimming travel

Children in Y2 to Y6 are transported to PKFC for PE through the year. Swimming starts in Y2: children travel to the Racquet Club for 12 week blocks of lessons.

7:40

The gardens, before and after school

Open every day from 7:40 before school, and after school from 14:30 to 16:00 (Friday to 15:30). Children here before 7:40, and all children from 14:30, must be supervised by a parent or carer. K1 children playing from 7:40 to 8:15 must be supervised by a caregiver.

What your child needs

Footwear that lets them run

Fully enclosed shoes for outside play and PE. Keep a pair of slip-on shoes at school for moving to specialist classes, and if your child likes socks indoors, choose socks with grips for safety.

Medicine goes to the nurse, never the bag

Keep medical information and vaccinations updated with our nurse. Medicine must never travel to and from school in a child's bag: a parent or caregiver hands it to the nurse, clearly labelled from a doctor. Nurse Apple:

Good to know

Photos, and getting onto campus

As part of safeguarding, no photos or videos on campus unless it is a special event: the thinking lives on the photographs page. To enter campus, wear your lanyard visibly. Forgot it? You will be asked to leave your ID card and scan to sign in.

Reaching the school

For urgent matters, call the office. Everything else flows through your class teacher, coordinator, or administrator by email.

How paying works

Activities and trips are paid in person at the office: the how to pay page walks through it.

Information sessions

Meet your year group's coordinators and administrators and hear how the year runs. Sessions run 17 to 25 August.

The parent handbook holds the rest

Anything not answered here lives in the handbook, and every policy sits in the documents section of the Parent App.
