Hazel Oak School

After an inspiring talk last month from Millie, our 6th formers put their best feet forward on a sponsored walk to raise money for Birmingham Dogs' Home.

Plenty of laps, smiles and a little rain later, they were able to raise £840 for this fantastic cause which will go towards the cost of caring for the dogs in kennels.

In addition to raising money, students and staff across the school also donated many items such as bedding, treats and toys to the centre which cares for over 2000 dogs a year across Birmingham.

A huge thank you to our families for their generous support! A paw-sitive result all-round!

While the weather may have stopped Sports Day today, it certainly hasn’t stopped the fun!

Our Circus Skills Workshop has been a huge hit, with children enjoying a range of exciting activities including plate spinning, juggling and learning lots of new tricks. The hall has been full of laughter, determination and plenty of smiles as pupils have challenged themselves and had a go at something different.

We’re delighted that the children have still been able to enjoy a special day despite the change of plans. Thank you for your understanding regarding the postponement of Sports Day, and we look forward to seeing everyone on our rescheduled date.

I think it’s fair to say that some of the staff have been enjoying themselves just as much as the children! 🎪🤹‍♀️😄
