We understand that there are times when parents need to arrange for someone else to collect their child, whether at the end of the school day or for transport to and from sporting events or other activities. For safeguarding reasons, it is essential that we are informed of any such changes in advance. We cannot allow a child to be collected by someone who is not their parent or usual carer without prior confirmation from you. Currently, these messages are sometimes shared via phone calls, the main admin email, or year group email accounts. This can occasionally result in information being missed, delayed, or not seen in time. To improve both safeguarding and efficiency, we have introduced a dedicated Change to Collection form on our website. We kindly ask that you complete this form (in the same way you would report a same-day absence) whenever there is a change to your child’s usual collection arrangements. Please also use this form if another parent is collecting your child, including for school events.

Frogs that Flip Charity Fundraising Event 

The Frogs that Flip are excited to announce a fun event for their second pledge! 

They will be hosting a “Guess the Member of Staff by Their Baby Photo” challenge, and there’s already lots of excitement building among the children. The purpose of school government events like this is to help pupils fulfil their commitment to raising money for charities, while having fun as a school community. 

• Cost to participate: 50p 

• Important: Only children who have paid will be able to take part 

• You can pay for this via Arbor by 3.15 on 30th June  
  
  

We are in the process of planning for graduation and we would like to ask for your help!  

If possible, please could you send in a photo (digitally) of your child either as a baby or toddler/younger child before they came to Almond Hill. This is not a necessity but would be nice. If you want your child to be included in this, please send your photo in by Tuesday 30th June. By sending the photo in, we will take this as consent for using for the purpose of graduation.  

Please send photos to year6@almondhill.herts.sch.uk and use 'baby photo' as the subject.  

There are still some families who have not yet booked tickets for graduation. Please log on to the Arbor App to order your tickets. As previously mentioned, spaces are limited to 3 per family. The booking will close at 12.00pm on Friday 26th June. Please book your places to enable us to plan the space in the hall.  

• Tuesday 14th July – 6S  

• Wednesday 15th July – 6C
