NEWSLETTER 11TH SEPTEMBER 2026AUNCHED!
Last Sunday, Haydn took over the junior park run at the Forest Recreation Ground. With over 111 participants, it became the most attended event breaking the previous record.
Well done to everyone who took part and represented our school. Thank you to all the staff who came to support, marshalled and help run the event.
We are hoping to make it an annual event; keep an eye our for it again next year so we can try and set an even higher attendance record!

ILAM MUSIC CAMP – A MESSAGE FROM MRS NEEDHAM
A special thank you to all the Year 5 children who went on Band Camp. I was incredibly proud of each and every one of you! You were all polite and friendly with the other members of staff and children from the other schools. You all joined in really well with the musical games and activities and what you achieved at the end of the camp was amazing! I look forward to seeing you all at Area Band where you will continue your musical journey. A massive thankyou to Mrs Owens as well for coming with us and helping me to improve my violin playing!
A MESSAGE FROM MUMS FOR LUNGS
Welcome back, everyone! At Haydn, we've been working hard to make our school safe and healthy for children in every way. One of those ways is making the air they breathe cleaner and the roads safer. Where possible, you can help by travelling to school without parking right outside. Walking, scooting, cycling, rollerblading, unicycling, dancing, we've seen it all! Well, maybe not unicycling, but you can be the first! If you need to drive, please park a little further away and switch off your engine while waiting.
If you'd like to help us this year, join our Mums for Lungs group. It's not just for mums! To find out more, see www.mumsforlungs.org.
BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS AT SCHOOL 🎂
🚫 No Sweet Treats, please!
We love celebrating birthdays with our children! To keep everyone safe, healthy and included, we ask that no sweet treats (like cupcakes, sweets or chocolate) be brought to school.
Instead of sweets, here are some fun and healthy ways to celebrate:
- 🎨 Donate a favourite book to the classroom library
- 🧩 Bring in a small game or activity to share
- 🖍️ Stickers, pencils or rubbers
- 🎉 Choose a class privilege (like being the line leader!)
- 🍏 Healthy snacks (e.g. satsumas/packets of raisins)
Thank you for helping us make every birthday celebration fun,inclusive and healthy for all!
There will still be opportunities for treats in school – for example, fundraising cake sales, Christmas parties and the Summer Fair. Parents/carers will be able to support their child at these events to make considered choices. The PTA are working hard this year to limit the number of unhealthier food and drink stalls at events and show children that life can still be sweet without too much sugar!
