Fabulous Football at Harriet House School
Thursday 15th October 2015 was a memorable day for Harriet House School as we held our very first 5 a side football tournament. Thank you to Home Farm and Yattendon School for joining us at this special event. It was a super afternoon filled with lots goal scoring and enthusiastic cheering by all. Harriet House School very much look forward to holding lots more sporting events!
“What makes the school so special is the atmosphere. The staff have infectious enthusiasm, they take care to support each individual child and they are utterly professional in everything they do. If my daughter loves school now and develops positive associations with education, then she has a much greater chance of flourishing as she gets older.”
