Dear Parent(s),

As part of this term’s work on personal safety, all the Y6 children will be taking part in “Crucial Crew”.

This is an interactive scheme for young people to learn about, and react to, a variety of real life-type situations: Home Fire Safety, Arson, Bus Safety, Road Safety, Child Criminal Exploitation, Mock Court Trial and Knife/Hate Crime.

It is run by South Yorkshire Police and other professional agencies. Our staff will be, of course, accompanying the children at all times.

It takes place at ‘The Lifewise Centre’, Rotherham.

The child will be going on Wednesday 5^th January 2022. We shall leave school after the register, by coach, and return to school by 3:00pm. Your child will also need a packed lunch and water but, as usual, if your child normally has free school meals, they will receive a free packed lunch.

The new school kitchen will be open from Thursday 21st October.  This will mean the school will return to serving hot meals every lunchtime.

The parade will leave High Hazels Academy at 4pm, the parade route will follow Staniforth Road and Main Road, and return back to High Hazels Academy.

Everyone can enjoy performances by High Hazels school choir, students from SPA, fire throwers and stilt walkers etc. There will also be a range of food and cake stalls to enjoy!

Come along, bring your lanterns and enjoy the fun

This week in art, Year 6 have been beginning to explore L.S. Lowry’s mark making techniques and the effect that these have had on his work. We then began to practice out own mark making, looking at the different textures and shades that mark making techniques can create.  

Dear Parents/Carers

Please note we have a professional development day on 15th October, and school is closed to all pupils.
School will reopen to all pupils on Monday 18th October.
