Hope Wood Academy6 days agoHope Wood are running a reverse advent calendar this year. We are collecting donations every day throughout December to give to those less fortunate. Items such as food, toiletries and small gifts which will help others will be given to the Salvation Army at the end of the term. Article 7 of The UN Convention on the Rights says every child has the right to food, clothing and a safe place to live so we are going to do our bit to help with this. Thank you in advance for your involvement in this!

Hope Wood Academy3 weeks agoThis week our Early Years pupils are taking part in World Nursery Rhyme week. Hedgehogs and Butterflies had a great time taking part in yesterday’s Nursery Rhyme-a-thon. Thanks for the sponsorships so far!
We will be celebrating World Nursery Rhyme Week for the rest of the week and have lots of exciting activities planned.
On Thursday, we will be making nursery rhyme snacks (sheep cupcakes and Humpty Dumpty biscuits) to sell for 20p each.
Parents/carers can order these through the home school diary. Pupils in school will have the opportunity to buy them in the afternoon. Posters to follow
Pupils in Butterflies and Hedgehogs will end the week on Friday with dressing up as a character from a nursery rhyme if they wish to. We look forward to seeing all of the costumes!
