Extra-Curricular Opportunities

All pupils have the opportunity to receive individual musical tuition in a variety of disciplines. Pupils are also able to showcase their skills in annual productions, annual musical evenings and in the church at Christmas.

Singing is highly valued at Brooke Hill and all pupils have opportunities to sing weekly, whether it be at whole-school assemblies or during lessons. Children also attend the annual Young Voices event at the NEC in Birmingham.

ParentPay

Brooke Hill Academy is a cashless school.

All payment transactions are processed through ParentPay.

On starting at the school, your child/ren will be issued with a letter containing login details for the ParentPay system. You will be asked to create your own password. It is possible to "connect" your account to your other children at Brooke Hill Academy, or to other schools who subscribe to this system.

All school trips, Breakfast Club and Pre-school payments will be allocated to your account where relevant.

If you have any queries regarding the ParentPay system, or you do not receive your start-up letter, please contact the school office.

ParentMail

All communication with parents, guardians and families is through the Parentmail system.

When your child/ren start at the school, you will automatically be sent an email from Parentmail to enable you to create a password and login to the system. This will allow you to view all letters and documents that are sent out by the school. These documents can also be viewed on the school website here.

Text messages containing last minute information are also sent using the Parentmail system.

Please ensure that you login as soon as possible, so that you are able to access all up to date information.

School Uniform

We encourage the wearing of school uniform as we believe it enables children to feel part of the whole school community and as such makes a significant contribution to the school ethos.

Please note that the school logo is optional on all items of school uniform. All clothing and footwear should be clearly labelled with your child's name.
