Summer Fair

Dear Parent/Carer.

This Friday we look forward to inviting the entire Hazelwood community to our annual Summer Fair.

This event is sure to be a special way for our pupils and their families to have a terrific evening whilst supporting the school.

The Summer Fair is our most important fund-raising event. By attending you will help Hazelwood raise much needed funds for our school. Every penny is invested in your child’s learning experience.

Previous fairs have helped raise money for –

·     Play scapes in all the play areas

·     A poly tunnel for our pupils to grow fruit & vegetables.

·     Outdoor learning equipment (including the years new firepit area)

You can support the school fund raising by –

·     Attending this Friday

·     Donating items for prizes (including tombola and bric a brac items)

All schools are facing a financial squeeze as budgets are reduced so supporting our summer fair will help support your child’s school experience.

We hope to see as many of our Hazelwood community at what is sure to be a terrific Summer Fair!

Thank you

Mr McDaid

Welcome message from Mr McDaid

Welcome to our school website! As you navigate your way through this site I hope that your overwhelming impression is that we are a nurturing school. I hope you see a school that offers your child opportunities to learn and to achieve – a school that develops and enriches your child through their daily experiences.

Most especially we are an Integrated school and in this environment, we talk about who we are and what we believe – we respect our own and others' cultures and backgrounds and take on the challenges that living in Northern Ireland continues to present.

Fashion Show

What a great night at our fashion show last night. All of the children were amazing, from the Comp`eres to the Choir and not to mention our very open susperstar models.

Thank you to all of you who came along to support our wonderful school. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.

A huge thank you to Dunnes Stores for the clothes.

"Hazelwood continues to be an outstanding example of integration in practice"

A few weeks ago our school was assessed for the Excellence in Integration Award. Not only were we successful but we became the first integrated school in Northern Ireland to achieve this award 3 times. This is a fantastic achievement for the entire Hazelwood community. I have included a summary from the report below.

“Hazelwood Integrated Primary and Nursery School continues to be an outstanding example of Integration in practice. It is an excellent example of a mature Integrated school that is willing and able to respond to a changing environment whilst holding fast to its founding principles. Over a long period of time the school has used the EIEA process as one means of ensuring an evolving safe and stimulating environment for its pupils, staff and parents.  The sense of community in the school is very impressive. It continues to have a high level of innovation in its practice. Its ability to manage its resources for the benefit of its pupils is testament to its wider management and governance.

The Governors, Principal, staff, pupils and parents deserve great credit for contributing so faithfully to this excellent Integrated primary and nursery school. 

The school clearly continues to make a large contribution for good and harmonious relations in the area.”

Thank you

Mr McDaid
