Dear Parent/Carer

To build on the success of our last term’s online Parent Teacher Consultation meetings, we will be holding an online virtual parent consultation meeting via School Cloud. These will take place on 6^th-7th of July for FS2-Y6 pupils and for nursery children 7th & 9^th July. This allows you to choose your own appointment time. Once you have booked your appointment you will receive a confirmation email.

Appointments can be made from today at 4pm and will close on Wednesday 7^th July. Should you wish to make any changes after this date please contact the school office.

To support you with using this relatively new system of booking we have attached a short video and crib sheet, which you can access via this link here https://vimeo.com/473882995 You can also access this information on our school website https://www.highhazelsacademy.org.uk/parents-and-community/school-cloud-parents-evening

Dear Parents/Carers

We will hold our sports day for the infant school on Tuesday 22nd June, and the junior school Wednesday 23rd June in a covid secure way.  Unfortunately due to extended Covid restrictions we cannot invite parents/carers to sports day.

The sporting events will be held on the field and school play ground. 

Please can parents ensure that children come into school in their PE kit and bring a water bottle on their allocated sports day.  Children will also need

Dear Parents/Carers

Our school will be taking part in the 10 day Active Travel Challenge starting on Monday 14^th and finishing on Friday 25^rd June 2021. 

The challenge is for pupils & their families to choose an active way of getting to school over the 10 day period. During the challenge each classroom will have a wall chart on which pupils who have travelled actively will record their journey. Those pupils with 10 stickers on the chart at the end of the 10 day challenge will be awarded a prize. 

Walking, cycling, skating, scooting and park & stride are all active ways of travelling and we hope by taking part in the challenge it will:  

• Improve health & wellbeing of our pupils & their families 
• Encourage pupils and families to be more active 
• Reduce congestion and parking problems around our school 
• Improve air quality around school 
• Promote active travel for the journey to school and for families to continue to do this after the challenge! 

We have all settled into the new term after a lovely break and we have enjoyed talking and hearing about all the fun things that we got up to in the holidays. In maths, we have been working hard to double amounts of objects using our doubling machine and learning how to double numbers within 20. We have started learning all about our new topic ‘Transport’ and we have been discussing all of the different modes of transport that we know. We have been reading the story ‘We All Go Travelling By’ and have been joining in, singing along to the words and acting out the story. We have written some fantastic sentences and made some brilliant story maps. We have also spent lots of time learning outside in the sun, watering the plants, building vehicles in the construction area and sailing boats in the water tray. We can’t wait to learn all about grouping and carrying on with our transport topic week. 

Dear Parents/Carers

We have had another busy half term packed with events and successes, including our most recent Eid-ul-Fitr parties. We have made fantastic gains in learning with all our pupils regardless of their starting point. I have been particularly impressed with our pupils’ strong and positive behaviours for learning and determination to do well in all their learning. This half term the staff have run 26 different clubs free to all our pupils across the school. These extra-curricular activities included: arts, sports, music, cooking, funky fingers, and mindfulness to name a few. We will be running a new range of after school clubs again next half term. Please continue to sign up your child/ren for these clubs as they play an integral part in our offer of ‘Education with Character’.

I am really looking forward to next half term and to having all our pupils back in school. The final half term of the academic year is always packed with events celebrating the successes of our pupils amongst other events. Teachers will be holding another round of parent consultation meeting to share your child/ren’s progress over the year. Our admin and pastoral team will be able to support you in setting up those online meetings if you haven’t yet attended one.

Finally, thank you all for your continued support and encouragement.
