Working together

Supporting the Community and Fundraising

As well as continually seeking ways in which the community can support us, we are also looking for ways in which we can support the local, wider and global communities. We are also developing community links through the wider work of the school and the children’s school council. If you have any other suggestions about how we can work more closely with communities, or are a community looking to work with us, we would love to hear from you. Please email us at parent.mail@hwis.hants.sch.uk  

Featured below are some examples of our work over the past few years – please take a look!
