This week Y1 have enjoyed visiting the ICT Suite. We have been exploring technology and how we can use technology safely. The Y1's have had a go at turning their computers on, logging in and logging out. The children were so sensible in the computer room and made sure they were showing respect to their teachers and each other when listening to their instructions. Well done! 

Y1 have been learning about Seasons in Science. We have been identifying the Seasons in a year and discussing what the weather is like. We have been talking about what clothes and objects we need during these different Seasons. The children then matched up these objects and worked with their friends to check their answers. 

We are supporting "Save the Children Christmas Jumper Day" on December 11th. 

Children don't even need a new jumper, they can wear last year's, or decorate an old jumper with some tinsel.

Many thanks

Dear Parents/Carers,

This week, (Monday 16^th - Friday 20^th November 2020) is Anti-bullying Week.  To raise awareness, we will be having an ‘Odd Socks Day’ on Friday 20^th November 2020. 

You do not need to donate any money for this; all that we ask is that your child comes to school in odd socks!

We know that all parents, pupils and staff at High Hazels are united against bullying, and we hope that you will join us in our celebration of individuality and what makes us unique.

Many thanks for your support,

High Hazels Team

This week Y1 have been working hard in Maths when identifying fact families. 

We have showed determination even when we found it a bit tricky. The teachers are very proud of all their hard work! 

Dear Parents/Carers

Our first week back after half term has started with an announcement from the government of a second countrywide lockdown from Thursday 5th November. The main difference for educational institutions in this second lockdown is that all schools will remain open for all pupils. I, therefore, ask that you continue to send your child/ren to school unless s/he has to isolate or has another illness that prevents them from attending school. At High Hazels Academy, we continue to go above and beyond to ensure that our building remains as safe as possible, that our offer of a high of quality educational provision is maintained and that our pupils' and staff's health and well-being remains at the heart of all that we do. We have maintained high levels of cleaning, employed additional daytime cleaning staff, and implemented a whole range of preventative measures. I am proud to say that our staff and pupils have responded positively to many changes. This has been possible due to your support, for which I am grateful.

However, I would once again want to urge all parents to observe social distancing rules and wear a face mask during drop off and collection times for the safety of all. I am also asking for further cooperation in ensuring that if your child or anyone in your household has any Covid-19 symptoms (high temperature, persistent cough, and/or loss of sense of smell/taste) then please DO NOT send your child to school. This also includes if anyone in your household is awaiting test results. Children must not attend school until a negative result is attained or a period of 14 days of isolation has been completed. Your full support with this means that we can continue to maintain the lowest possible risks of transmission and keep our entire school community safe.

This week has also seen the launch of our annual Parents' Survey. You will have been sent an email from no-reply@edurio.com. The survey is run by an independent survey company and you can be in to win a £25 Amazon voucher. We look forward to hearing your views! Please do complete the survey as it is more important now than ever that we get your feedback and look at how else we as a school can continue to support our families.

This week you will receive a letter from the school about our offer of after school club for all pupils. To clarify, these clubs will be run by teachers within their own class bubbles therefore maintaining health and safety arrangements for all. I would encourage you all to support your child to attend their after-school clubs. The clubs constitute a key part of our Education with Character offer that builds pupils' skills and knowledge beyond academia. This is particularly important as it will help with supporting our pupils p
