HATHERLEIGH Primary School held its first 'family forum' recently and it was so successful they now plan another one.

The forum is intended as an opportunity for families to come into school, have a cup of tea, meet other families and share ideas for school improvement.

Anyone is welcome and there is no commitment to attend regularly. The next family forum will be held at the school on Friday, November 5 at 2.45pm.

l Parents of pupils at Hatherleigh Primary have been asked that, for the safety of all the children, they should not park on the lines outside school.

A school spokesperson said: 'We would also ask for co-operation by not blocking the school entrance by stopping to drop off or collect children from school.

'Tickets to enable free use of the car park during school arrival and departure times are available from the school office.'
