April Holiday Readers
As holidays are starting to approach us, the children are getting excited to have some time to relax, play, watch a bit of television and be creative. However, creativity comes in all forms, sizes and shapes.
“Reading is the key that unlocks the door to creativity.” We would love to offer you the opportunity to take home library books for our children to read through the holidays.
Please see the attached link to a Google form to let us know if you are interested.

CHP Holiday Club
The end of our first term is fast approaching. School breaks up on Friday 10 April and returns on Wednesday 6 May with two public holidays during the break: 27 April and 1 May. We understand that not all parents will be able to take leave for this entire time and thus we intend to offer a Holiday Club programme. Please could we ask that you complete the short form to book a place at the Holiday Club – 8h00 to 17h30– including lunch and snack.
