School Closed on October 1st

HFS will be closed on Tuesday 1st October. This day has been declared as Armed Forces Day and is a national public holiday. An extra school day has been added on March 4th 2025 so the students are not losing any learning days. Tuesday 4th March was previously a staff training day.

The school calendar on our website has been updated to reflect these changes.
