Seesaw

In our classroom we use an app called Seesaw. This platform will help you stay connected with your child's learning journey by giving you a window into our classroom.

Seesaw is a simple and secure digital portfolio where your child will be able to share their work with you. They can post photos, videos, drawings, and more. It's a fantastic way to celebrate their successes and see their progress throughout the year. You will only see the work that your own child posts, and the platform is designed with student privacy as a top priority.

As a family member, you will get notifications when your child adds new work, and you can "like" or leave comments to encourage them. It's a great way to start conversations at home about what they're learning in school.

Before your child starts with us you will receive a link to join their class on Seesaw then you'll be able to select your child's profile to follow. This will be approved by staff members to ensure only approved family members are able to view children's learning journeys.

Uniform

At Hartlebury CE Primary School, while wearing a school uniform is not mandatory for our youngest learners, we believe it offers a wonderful way to foster a sense of community and belonging right from the start. Our uniform is ideal for the busy and creative activities of Early Years. It not only prepares children for their journey through school but also helps to create a shared identity, making every child feel part of our special school family.

Our Uniform suppliers are FM Branding

🚣‍♂️ Year 6 Bell Boating Adventure! 🚣‍♀️ On Friday, our Year 6 children headed out for an exciting bell boating session — and what a fantastic time they had! 🌊 Working together in teams, the children showed brilliant communication, determination and resilience as they paddled their way along the water. There were plenty of laughs along the way, and it was lovely to see everyone encouraging each other and building confidence. A huge well done to all of Year 6 for their positive attitudes and teamwork — you made us very proud! 👏

💐 Celebrating our wonderful mums and loved ones 💐 We loved celebrating our mums and loved ones at a special church service today. It was a lovely time to reflect, say thank you and spend time together as a school community. After the service, everyone enjoyed tea and cake together, which made it even more special! We hope all of our mums and special people have a very happy and relaxing Mother’s Day this weekend. 🌸

🧪 Our Amazing Science Fair! This week our school hall turned into a busy science lab! To celebrate STEM Week, we held a Science Fair and it was fantastic to see the children become real experts for the afternoon. The hall was full of excitement as we explored all sorts of big questions. We saw balloons inflating using yeast and lightbulbs powered by lemons! The children tested which items would float and investigated which shapes and materials made the very best boats. We also discovered how plants drink coloured water, how parachutes use air resistance to slow them down, and how light reflects off different objects. A huge well done to our student leaders who ran the stations. They did a brilliant job explaining their investigations to the rest of the school, from Year 6 all the way down to Reception. It was wonderful to see everyone so curious and eager to learn!

Happy World Book Day! 📚✨ What a brilliant day we’ve had celebrating our love of reading.

Bear’s training to be a therapy dog is going so well! This week, Year 6 had a very special treat as he joined them for a whole morning in class. 🐶✨ From calm reading time to quiet working alongside the children, Bear took it all in his stride and loved every minute of the attention (and the cuddles!). As you can see… by the time we reached the staff meeting, he was completely pooped! 😴🐾 We are so proud of the progress he is making – and very grateful for the smiles he brings to our school community. 💛
