How can you get involved?
At Hollington Primary Academy there are plenty of opportunities for parents and carers to come in and enjoy the fun of learning. We invite parents/carers in for theme days, learning journey 'fantastic finish' learning showcases and celebration assemblies. Information on such events will be shared via ParentMail - so keep your eyes peeled!
"It’s great when the school holds parent days and lets us come in and do learning sessions with the children - the science one was really good!"
