Parents Email
Thu 21 Sep 2017Lots of parents have been telling us about wonderful activities you do at home with your children. It is not always possible to share all of these lovely things with your teacher, so we have set up an email address for you to send pictures or write about what you have done. We would really enjoy celebrating this in school with your child and I’m sure they will love talking about it.
There will be an email address for each class so it gets to your child’s teacher.
F1 send your emails to classf1@heasandford.lancs.sch.uk
F2 send your emails to classf2@heasandford.lancs.sch.uk
F3 send your emails to classf3@heasandford.lancs.sch.uk
Teachers will not be replying to the email. It is going to be used as a way of you sharing your child’s work. If you have any questions about your child, please come and see us in person.
Thank you for your continued support.
Mrs L. O’Brien
Foundation Stage Leader

Parents : find out more about SEND
Thu 14 Sep 2017FIND out about SEND courses
The Information, Advice and Support (IAS) Team are running free courses across Lancashire for parent carers of children and young people who have or may have special educational needs or disability (SEND).
We are aiming to outline SEN Support, look at the Local Offer, discuss who might be involved with their child and do some jargon busting. We will look at the Common Assessment Framework and Team Around the Family and touch on the Education, Health and Care Plan process but the main aim is to clarify school support and the graduated response. We will also look at what support is available from other agencies.
The course is for one day from 9.30am to 2.30pm
Refreshments will be provided, parent carers are to bring their own lunch.
The venues are
- Preston County Hall 9th October 2017
- Skelmersdale Greenhill Community Hub 12th October 2017

For further information and to book places, please direct parent carers to Tel 01772 532509 or email FIND@lancashire.gov.uk

Year 6 Activity Week
Tue 06 Jun 2017Year 6 Activity Week
As you all know, we are rapidly approaching your child’s final weeks at Heasandford. In an attempt to make this as memorable as possible, and to reward good behaviour, we are organising some exciting events to take place next half term. Throughout the year the children have earned credit points towards the trips.
There will be various activities taking place including a visit to the cinema, bowling, dance and football workshops, Play Factore with laser quest and Blackpool Pleasure Beach. The cost of these trips has been heavily subsidised by school however we need to ask for a payment of £22.00 to cover the cost of the activities.
In order that we may book these activities we have to ask you to complete and return a consent slip (see below). A list of the dates and what the children require will be sent out to you at a later date.
Please note that this visit is covered by Lancashire County Council’s Public Liability insurance. There is no Personal Accident or Travel insurance provided for your child, which would cover injury or property loss/damage happening on the visit regardless of legal liability. If you feel that this is necessary, you will need to make separate arrangements.
In the light of unacceptable behaviour, the school reserves the right to deny a place for a student on the visits or return the student home.
Please complete and return the form (see below) to school by Friday, 23rd June.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs A Fitzpatrick, Mr Ali and Mrs C Howarth

Dear Year 1 children
Fri 19 May 2017I am sorry for the naughty things I have done. I now know that I should not have stolen the food from the other animals.
I have been sent to work in a baker’s shop in London. My job is to sweep up the crumbs off the floor and to keep the shop tidy. It can be very tiring work.
There is a large building very near the baker’s shop. I have attached a photograph which I have taken.
Would you please find out what it is called and any other facts about it?
I wonder who lives there? There looks to be lots of rooms.
If you find out any information you could email it to me or you could give them to your teacher.
I have to go now. The baker is coming and I don’t want to get into any more trouble.
Yours,
The Highway Rat

Year 3 Tour of Burnley
Mon 24 Apr 2017As part of our Burnley topic, Year 3 will be going on a tour of Burnley and the surrounding landmarks on Wednesday 3rd May. This tour will allow the children to investigate some of the key geographical features of the town they live in.
Our tour will include:
- Cliviger – to see the windmills
- Worsthorne – to investigate the village
- Crown Point – to walk across the moor lands to the Singing Ringing Tree
- Towneley Hall – to enjoy the gardens, eat lunch and learn about the history
- Turf Moor – a drive past to see the home of Burnley Football Club
- Pendle Hill – to enjoy a walk on the famous hill to gain a bird’s eye view of Burnley
The children will eat their lunch whilst at Towneley Hall and all children will be required to bring a packed lunch. If your child usually has a school meal, a packed lunch will be provided for them.
The trip will cost each child £4.00 which will go towards the cost of the coaches – no spending money is required. We have to tell you that, under the schools charging policy agreed by the Governors …. “no-one will be discriminated against on the grounds of inability to pay. However, voluntary contributions will be invited and should these be insufficient then the activity would not take place”. A copy of the policy is available from school. If payment is a problem please see Mrs Hall.
Please send your child in suitable footwear and waterproof clothing.
Please complete and return the slip (see link below) by Friday 28th April.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs Kerr, Mrs Robinson, Mrs Silvester and Mrs Roberts

Do you have a child in primary school in year 2 or year 6?
Wed 29 Mar 2017If so, they will be taking the national curriculum tests (commonly called SATs) in May 2017. The tests are not qualifications and don’t affect your child’s future options in school.
The results are an opportunity to compare pupils nationally to ensure schools are helping pupils to master the basics in English and mathematics, and make progress.
They are also an important tool to help teachers identify pupils who may need additional support, and make sure this is put in place as early as possible.

If you were an engineer in Burnley what would you do?
Fri 10 Mar 2017“If you were an engineer in Burnley what would you do?”
Class 3-2, 5-1, 5-2, and Year 6 have been chosen to part in an exciting engineering project in school and it would be fantastic if you could give them a great start by helping them think of some ideas.
Can you help your child to think of a problem that needs to be solved? Identify a problem and devise a solution to that problem. The problem they identify can be absolutely anything – getting out of bed in the morning, climate change, picking up litter, completing their homework, aspects of disability – whatever you think is a problem.
An engineer is coming into school to talk to the children and then the children will design a poster in class showing off their invention.
Every pupil will receive a Primary Engineer Leaders Award certificate. At least two entries per year group will be shortlisted to win a trophy and two inventions per year group will be selected as trophy winners plus a minimum of two entries per school will be on display at a public exhibition.
Your child can bring in some notes or designs to help them complete the project or just be ready with a great idea.
