Lockdown 3.0 saw Hazlegrove pupils Remote Learning
Outstanding levels of effort and enthusiasm were put in by all during the eight weeks of learning at home. Monday 8 March saw the School fully open with the majority of pupils reuniting with friends and teachers to complete the rest of the Spring term back in the classroom. A huge well done to all.

These included juggling workshops, the tea bag challenge, the bounce challenge, distance challenges, keepy uppies and the hugely popular scavenger hunts.
