Our nursery children had a great day last week at our 'Teddy Bears Picnic'! The children in nursery brought their favorite teddies and enjoyed a sunny picnic inside.

Today, we played Battle of the Books. The children shared a book of their choice and took part in a series of discussions and votes to decide on their favourite books. As the groups became larger, they practised explaining their opinions, listening to others, and voting fairly. The activity helped develop confidence, communication skills, and a love of reading

Yesterday, our Y6s had an absolutely fantastic activity day! Everyone tried their hand at:

Archery

Climbing

Circus skills

Team challenges

It was a great time for everyone involved!

In Y1 we’ve been busy creating memory books that showcase all the great learning we’ve done this year. 📚✨

We welcomed FS2 children into our classrooms to share what they can look forward to next year! 💖

Dear families,

On Friday 17th July (our last day of the academic year) we will be holding classroom parties! 🎉 We’d greatly appreciate your help with food or drink donations (please avoid nut products)

Please can donations be brought into school with your child on the morning.

It’s a non-uniform day too! 😊 Don’t forget to inform the office about any allergies.

Thank you for your support!🎊

In science Y1 have been learning about the 5 senses. We have been using our senses like touch feeling things in the secret bag. We went for a walk to see what we could hear and smell. We even learnt about people who can't hear and see and learnt some sign language.

Last week our Y4s were exploring the world of symmetry! They’ve been creating some amazing symmetric figures and exploring the patterns that make them so special.

Last week, our Year 6 pupils enjoyed a fascinating heart dissection this week, exploring the different parts of the heart and learning how it pumps blood around the body. They approached the activity with curiosity, maturity and enthusiasm, making it a memorable hands-on learning experience!

Dear Y6 families,

Your children are fast approaching the end of their time with us at High Hazels Academy. Staff at High Hazels would like to give them the opportunity to celebrate their achievements and to say goodbye to friends and teachers at the ‘End of Year Celebration’.

**📅 Date: Friday, 17th July 2026, from 4:30pm to 6:30pm**

We’ll have food, but would appreciate any donations of drinks. Remember, children MUST be collected by 6:30pm as they can’t walk home alone 🥳
