Reception class intake 2020

Do you have or know anyone who will be starting school in September 2020?  Our school tours for prospective parents will commence from Tuesday 24^th September at 9:30am.  Please see our website for further details.  Please contact admissions@hamsey.surrey.sch.uk or phone 01883 622000 to book onto one of the tours.

 

Safety

Please can we remind you all not to walk up through the vehicle entrance when the gates are opened for vehicles leaving or entering the school premises.  This is a dangerous practice and our children learn by example. 

Can we remind all parents, and in particular parents of Reception and Year 1 children.  After dropping and collecting pupils, please can you use the main playground for exiting rather than via the field.  This is for safeguarding purposes.  Thank you for your co-operation.
