Enrichment
We are proud to offer a range of enrichment programmes and activities for our children at Hazelwood.
Hazelwood’s Got Talent
Each year we celebrate the wonderful talents of our children with our exciting Hazelwood’s Got Talent. All children are free to enter either individual or in a small group. Rounds are held in class with the children voting for their favourite act. All winners go through to the semi-final where they perform their talent in a special assembly to their house. The children of each house will vote for their favourite act in Year 1 & 2, Year 3 & 4 and Year 5 & 6. The three winners then perform for the whole school and community in the final. It is a wonderful celebration of our amazing children.
World Book Day
Each year, we celebrate World Book Day as a whole school. All the children are encouraged to dress up as their favourite book character and we hold a range of exciting activities to celebrate reading. This has ranged from taking photos of the most interesting place you can read a book, stop, drop and read, learning about a local author and illustrator and each class writing their very own story. It is an annual event that all of our children (and staff) immerse themselves into wholeheartedly.
Competitions and Events
As well as the wide range of extra-curricular competitions and events we hold at Hazelwood, we are proud to be part of the Enfield Town Partnership which enables us to provide even more opportunities for our children. So far, children have participated in Spelling Bees, Debating competitions and a Science Fayre where they are able to compete against other schools in the borough. We are very proud of all their achievements so far and are looking forward to what the future will bring.
Newspaper Group
Our Year 4, 5 and 6 children are given the opportunity to participate in a weekly Newspaper club where they read and discuss current affairs and articles in the newspaper.
John Gilbert
John Gilbert is an inspirational and motivational speaker who works with our Year 4, 5 and 6 children at Hazelwood Schools. He works with the children debating and discussing world events as well as developing resilience, self-confidence and ambition within our children. He also visits other classes to focus on PSHE subjects and continuing to develop our values-based learning approach.
