Harmans Water Primary School

During the Covid_19 pandemic, we donated goggles and face masks to adult social care and the NHS. Mr Ellis is pictured delivering to Wokingham Hospital.

At HWPS, we have been commemorating the First World War Centenary. We have held special assemblies, learned a remembrance song, put up a display of children’s work at St, Pauls Church and on Friday 9th November at 11.00, following the playing of the last post, we observed a few moments of silence (not quite a minute because of the weather). 

On 8th June 2017, as the UK went to the polls in the general election, HWPS held its own vote. The school association, HWSA, donated £150 and children in KS2 formed polictical parties, each based on an idea for spending the money. Following an intial selection process, four parties were chosen to go through to the election proper. They were:

The Tuck Shop Party

The Hydration Station (healthy tuck shop)

The Snack Farm Party

The Clubs Party

All the children in school, from nursery to Y6, voted in a process which was as close to the real general election process as possible. One of our parents even supplied us with some authentic ballot boxes that weren't being used elsewhere!

The final result was a landslide victory for the Clubs Party - no hung parliament here!
