Crafty Wizards Nursery have a couple of exciting Christmas events coming up. Please see below information on their Bromley Christmas Community Market on Sunday 23rd November and their 'Clause for Celebration at Kids Play Now!' event at The Eltham Centre on Tuesday 25th November.
Parents from our school community are holding a bake sale in the playground after school on Monday 17th November at 3.15pm for World Prematurity Day with all money raised to be donated to multiple charities including Bliss and Ronald McDonald House.

The Greenwich Mental Health in Schools Team (GMHST) are holding an online psychoeducation workshop for parents/carers of primary school aged children about "common behavioural difficulties". Please click here for further info on the common behavioural difficulties online workshop
They are also holding a psychoeducation webinar for parents/carers of secondary school aged children about understanding your child's anxiety. Please click here for further info on the parent webinar about supporting your child's anxiety.
We are delighted to share with you the upcoming festive events that will be held in school during December.
Parents/Carers are invited to come and watch.
For each of our Christmas performances, we warmly invite all families to join us for a mince pie and a hot drink. It’s a lovely opportunity to come together as a community, share some festive cheer, and celebrate the season before enjoying the children’s performances. Please join at the times above.
On Thursday 18th December children can have a Christmas lunch in school. Please complete this form by 9am on Wednesday 26th November if you would like your child to have a school lunch on this day. Please note, if your child usually has a school meal on a Thursday you do not need to complete this form.
We look forward to welcoming our school community into school for these fantastic events.
We are pleased to invite our families to the first meeting of our Racial Literacy Parent Forum, taking place on Friday 5th December at 9.05am.
Why?
This forum is part of our ongoing commitment at Horn Park to deepen racial literacy across our school community. Following work already underway with staff, we now want to open space for parent and carer voice - to listen, reflect, and build together.
What to expect
This is not a training session, but a chance to share what staff have been exploring, and to ask: Does this resonate with your experiences? What would you add? What should come next?
We aim to move beyond one-way communication and create a safe, welcoming space for open conversation. All parents and carers are invited, with opportunities for individual follow-up if preferred.
Tea, coffee and biscuits will also be provided.
Get in Touch
If you have any questions or would like to express interest early, please feel free to get in touch. You can do this in person on the gate, by replying to this email or by completing this short anonymous online form
