Holiday Activities and Food Programme: Enriching Experiences All Year Round!
Our schools are dedicated to providing children with enriching experiences 52 weeks a year! In 2023, we launched our Holiday Activity and Food (HAF) programme, offering a wide range of fun and educational activities during school holidays.
Children have enjoyed art workshops, music sessions, podcast creation, sports, Bikeability training, Earthwake adventures, cheerleading, forest school, and more. Lunch is always included and free for those receiving free school meals.

We were thrilled that so many ASSET schools were finalists in the Suffolk Education Awards, and Charlotte Richardson's recognition as Family and Community Coordinator at The Beeches, winning the TA/Support Staff of the Year Award, was great news for the Village!
Three teams of staff from Edgar Sewter Primary in Halesworth, Bungay Primary and The Beeches Primary in Ipswich took part in the Race Across Suffolk last week to raise money for The Blossom Charity, who support people who have been through challenging life circumstances.
We added a new category of awards into the annual ASSET Awards this year to celebrate the amazing adults who make an enormous difference to our schools and the lives of children and families in our communities. Take a look at our winners...
