Welcome to the Community Pages

At Hazlehead we are very fortunate to be part of a thriving community in which we are actively involved.  Citizenship is built into our ethos and curriculum.
We have  business links with Angusfield Care Home and Dobbies Garden Centre.

Angusfield Care Home Partnership Agreement

In Spring 2009 we formalised our, already well established, relationship with Angusfield by signing a Partnership Agreement.

The aims of this agreement  are as follows:
:To form a lasting relationship which will benefit everyone involved
:To encourage interaction between school pupils and an elderly population
:To raise awareness amongst the pupils of the care needs of the elderly
:To have regular visits, by pupils, to the Care Home
:To have visits to the school from Home staff for introductory and feedback sessions.

This will be a mutually beneficial partnership which will help towards improving pupil achievement levels whilst providing them with experiential learning of the world of work.
You can see from the pictures below that the visits are, indeed, enjoyed by all.
