Dear parents/carers,

At High Hazels Academy we encourage children to eat healthily. This includes eating healthy snacks and meals at school and at home.

Can we remind parents that a packed lunch should include:

• A starchy carbohydrate food such as bread, pasta, rice, couscous
• A portion of fruit
• A portion of vegetables
• A dairy (or soya alternative) food such as cheese, milk, yoghurt
• A protein food such as a chicken, turkey, mince, fish, beans, chickpeas, eggs
• Water or milk

Also please remember to cut grapes in halves to avoid choking hazards!

The following are not to be included in packed lunches:

• Chocolate, chocolate spread, chocolate pancakes, chocolate brioche or chocolate croissants
• Biscuits or cereal bars
• Cakes or pastries
• Sweets
• Crisps, baked crisps, mini cheddars
• Fizzy or sugary drinks such as Ribena, Capri Sun, vitamin flavoured water, Fruit Shoot, fruit

Thank you

The teachers are very proud of how well the FS2 children are settling into school! We have had lots of fun exploring our new classroom environments and making new friends. The children have started their 'All About Me' theme of learning by drawing who lives in their house, painting self-portraits and talking about their favourite colours, foods, and hobbies. Outside the children have enjoyed climbing, building, riding bikes and role playing in the den and mud kitchen areas. We can't wait to watch the children grow and progress this year! 

Dear Parents/Carers

We hope that you have all had a restful and enjoyable summer break. We are really looking forward to having all our pupils back at school tomorrow Thursday September 2^nd.   Please click on the link below to read updated information for pupils returning to school.

Dear Parents/Carers

I am delighted to report that we have had much of the work completed on Junior playground over the summer holidays. However, our kitchen refurbishment will not be completed until end of October. This means that we have had to alter the menu offer for this period. This has been carefully designed to ensure that despite not having a fully functioning kitchen for a few weeks our children get a nutritious, enjoyable, and balanced meal every day. To see the menu for the next two weeks, click on this link.

Many thanks
