*  Y6 Value & Pride Award Winners *

Good afternoon families,

Please join us in congratulating our Y6 pride and value award winning pupils this week.

🌟 Attention Parents and Carers! 🌟

High Hazels Academy is excited to continue our partnership with The Sheffield Parent Carer Forum to enhance the school experience for children with additional needs.

Join us for our parents and carers meeting on Wednesday, 4th February at 9am at High Hazels Academy. This is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with other parents.

We’ll discuss:

• Why some children struggle with social skills and what we can do to help

• How we can help our children understand their own difficulties/needs and begin to express these

Plus, we'll tackle other school-related topics and answer any questions you might have. Drinks and snacks will be available!

Together, let’s make a difference! Will you join us?

Year 6 have started their new writing unit this morning. Taking the 'Little People, Big Dreams' books as our focus, we explored the features and structures of different biographies. Students also had the opportunity to read from a selection of these books before they begin drafting their own biography.

Sheffield Grand Mosque and Sheffield Parent Carer Forum are hosting a SEND support event at the Grand Mosque on Grimesthorpe Road, Sheffield, on 30 January 2026, from 11:00am–2:00pm.

Families will have the opportunity to meet with up to 20 local services, including, a stall from, Sheffield Parent carer forum, Ryegate Team OT, and sensory team, Eating Disorders Team, Community Continence Team, Family Action, SSENDIAS, and more. The event aims to support families who may be struggling to meet their children’s SEND needs by offering advice, signposting, and practical support in one accessible place.

All are welcome and there is no need to book.

What a delight it was to see so many parents join their children on Thursday for an afternoon filled with creativity and fun! Year 6 students had a blast sewing their very own hats during Design Technology class.

Thank you all for being a part of this activity!

Many thanks

Thank You

Year 6 want to say a massive THANK YOU to all our grown-ups who came into school for our 'sew-case'. We were delighted that over 45 adults attended the event! We put our sewing skills to the test and stitched our hats together ready for decorating and embellishing next week. What a fantastic afternoon we had!

Good afternoon families,

Please join us in congratulating our Y6 pride and value award winning pupils this week.

Dear Parent/Carer

As the holy month of Ramadan will start on 17^th/18^th February, we appreciate that some of our older children will be wanting to Fast. It is extremely important that we have parent/carer consent for children who will be fasting.

While we understand children will want to Fast, we would advise that children below Y5 keep their Fast during the weekend as when they are in school, they are very active and at this time of year there a lot of things happening.

For Health and Safety reasons if any child becomes unwell during their Fast, we will contact parents for permission to give them food and drink. Parents may be advised to take their child home. On a hot day we will also be asking those children who are fasting to stay indoors/in the shade.

Can you please complete the electronic permission in the consent section of the Arbor app.

Children will not be allowed to fast without parental consent.

Many thanks for your continued support

Yours sincerely,

Ms. M Elliott

Principal

Our Y6 students have been busy practicing their sewing skills as they prepare to make some fabulous hats in their DT class! 🎉 We’re thrilled to invite you to join us for a fun and creative sewing session together with your child tomorrow at 2 PM in their classroom. 🧵✨

It's going to be a great opportunity to bond and create something special! We can't wait to see you there!

Let’s get those stitches ready! 🪡❤️
