But you don’t have to be a parent to get involved – carers, grandparents and friends of the school can join in too. Across the year we organise a number of events and activities for the children and their families to enjoy. Our largest event of the year is Fireworks & Bonfire Night, but we also have discos, quizzes, cinema nights, paint and sip, picnics and our Second-Hand Uniform Stall to name but a few! ALL profit raised at these events is ploughed back into the school to contribute towards the cost of improved facilities and activity days for the children - FOSSA has funded workshops, eg. visiting author days, and new equipment for the playground areas. We really appreciate new parents/carers getting involved and suggesting exciting new ways of raising funds, so please pop along to a meeting, check out our **[Facebook](http://www.facebook.com/hitchinfossa)** page and Noticeboards, volunteer to help at an event (every hour counts) and, most importantly of all, come along to these events and have some fun! ![](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/images/images/047.jpeg) ### About Us - [Admissions](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/about-us/admissions) - [School Day](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/about-us/school-day) - [Our Team](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/about-us/our-team) - [Governors](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/about-us/governors) - [Our Vision, Motto and School Development Plan](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/about-us/our-vision-motto-and-school-development-plan) - [FOSSA](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/about-us/fossa) - [Volunteers](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/about-us/volunteers) - [Contact Us](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/contact) - [Emergency School Closures](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/about-us/emergency-school-closures) - [School Uniform Policy](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/about-us/school-uniform-policy) ![Strathmore Infant and Nursery School](https://files.schudio.com/strathmore-infant-and-nursery-school/images/logo/Strathmore_Infant_and_Nursery_-_logo_(1).png) ### Strathmore Infant and Nursery School Old Hale Way Hitchin Hertfordshire SG5 1XR 01462 459558 ### Useful Links: - [Newsletters](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/news-and-events/newsletter-half-termly) - [Admissions](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/about-us/admissions) - [School Day](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/about-us/school-day) - [Safeguarding](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/key-information/safeguarding) © Copyright 2025–2026 Strathmore Infant and Nursery School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.strathmore.herts.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
