📚 World Book Day at Hatchside Infants!

Staff at Hatchside Infants marked World Book Day with some fantastic costumes, bringing stories to life across the school.

The colourful outfits created plenty of smiles and excitement, making the day a fun celebration of books and reading for pupils and staff alike.

A brilliant effort from the team and a great way to celebrate the joy of stories together.

🚴🏻 Kevin Johnson Takes on Two of the UK’s Toughest Cycling Challenges to Support Our Pupils

Kevin Johnson, Site Manager at Hatchside Junior and Infant Schools, is undertaking a significant personal cycling challenge to raise funds in support of children across Astrum Multi Academy Trust.

Kevin will be completing two demanding endurance cycling events, raising money for the Parents and Friends Associations at Newbridge and Hatchside. Funds raised will help provide additional resources and equipment that directly benefit pupils.

Supporters who donate will also be able to track Kevin’s progress on the day of each ride, following his journey as he completes the challenges.

We are grateful to Kevin for his commitment and to everyone who chooses to support this fundraising effort.
