CHP:

NOTICES 1 – 5 February 2021

Welcome Back! We would like to wish all our CHP families all the very best for 2021.

A very warm welcome to all our new parents to the CHP family. We hope that you are all feeling a little brighter and more positive today. It is wonderful to see all our children returning to school this week! However, it is important that we remain vigilant in all areas of life and not allow complacency to creep in.
