Dear families

At High Hazels we strongly believe in promoting healthy eating and encouraging a balanced diet. Snacks play an integral role in a child's daily nutrition, providing them with necessary energy and nutrients, and healthy snacks contribute positively to their well-being. We ask for parent’s support in ensuring that snacks sent to school align with the principles of healthy eating. Please see healthy snack ideas on the picture attached.

Dear families

It is important that your child has the right start to their day. Children who arrive late miss learning time and start the day with an unsettled routine. Our school gates all open at 8.40am, and close at 8.50am, all children are expected to arrive between 8.40 – 8.50am and be ready to learn in their classrooms by 8.55am.  Children arriving after 9am will be registered as late.

Good attendance is linked to a child's achievement at school.  Appointments with doctors, dentists or hospital should be made outside of school hours or in the holidays.

Don’t forget every day counts!

Good morning families,

We hope that you have all enjoyed your summer break spending time with your children and loved ones. All staff have returned to school today to complete training and ensure that our school is ready to welcome all children back on Wednesday 4th September. School will be open from 8am for breakfast club, and all other school gates will open at 8.40am.

We would also like to wish all our previous Year 6 pupils’ good luck on starting their secondary school adventures this week!

Dear Parents and Carers

In a bid to make things more affordable, we have decided to change our school uniform slightly.

We have swapped our v-neck knitted jumpers/cardigans for navy blue sweatshirts/cardigans either with or without the logo.

We will no longer be having ties and children will be able to wear black jogging bottoms as well as trousers and black trainers or shoes. 

White Polo shirts can be worn instead of plain white shirts and girls can wear a pull over type (not loose) scarf in navy or black.

Parents will be able to order the sweatshirts and cardigans, book bags and Pe bags as usual from the school office.

New Price List – Please note Pinders have changed ownership and therefore have new suppliers, you will notice the change in price of our book bags and shoulder bags.

Sweatshirts - £8.50

Cardigans – £9.00

Small Book Bag with logo - £4.50

Shoulder Book Bag with logo - £9.00

Pe Bags with logo - £3.00

As usual it is expected that children wear their uniform everyday unless otherwise instructed.

It is also expected that all children have their PE kits in school everyday so that they can change clothes for their PE lessons.

There are some picture examples of our uniform and PE kits on the weekly sway page.

If you have any questions regarding uniform, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you for your continuing support.

Yours sincerely

Ms Elliott
