The Wrotham Road Team really value working in partnership with you in the interest of your children’s progress and well-being, we want the very best for every child. You can help us to do this by ensuring that your child has a good night’s sleep.
The NHS has set out the required amount of sleep for Primary aged children as follows:
- 3yr olds need 11 hours 30 mins per night
- 4 & 5 yr olds need 11 hours per night
- 6 yr olds need 10 hours 45 mins per night
- 7 yr olds need 10 hours 30 mins per night
- 8 yr olds need 10 hours 15 mins per night
- 9 yr olds need 10 hours per night
- 10 and 11 yr olds need 9 hours 30 mins per night
It is also really important that children (and adults) do not do any on-screen activity within the hour before going to bed as the blue light exposure can make it much harder to go to sleep. In addition, a healthy breakfast will set your child up for a good start to the day. We ensure the children drink lots of water in school and it’s great if you do so at home as well.
