Year 4 & 5 have designed workouts today as part of our Children in Need Fitness Friday. They had great fun teaching the Year 1 children their exercises.
After a morning of Gorge walking our intrepid adventurers headed to the lake for a spot of paddle boarding. Needless to say they all slept very well last night. Today’s adventures are climbing and abseiling.
We were all really excited to see our new wall art that has been installed during the holidays. The children have said how much it will inspire their learning.
Year 5 arrived safely and immediately launched themselves into their first task - canoeing. Check out the beautiful setting. Apparently they all ended up in the lake and got soaking wet but they loved every minute. Night walking tonight so they should sleep well.
After a Costa pit stop for hot chocolate our Year 5 intrepid adventurers have arrived safely at Dolygaer and are about to get stuck into their first activity.
Our Year 5 children and staff had an early start this morning to travel to Wales to their residential. There were lots of excited children and surprisingly happy parents😂We will keep you posted on their adventures as the week progresses.
The children of Fairfields have made these beautiful flowers which will be displayed at the Calverton Church flower festival this weekend (5th-7th July). We hope you have time this weekend to make a visit and see the children’s work.
A huge thank you to everyone who donated Bags 2 School we raised a fantastic £158.80. The money raised will go towards buying more equipment for the playground at lunchtime. Thank you.
Thank you for all your Bags2School donations. We are delighted with the outcome in response to our Big Buddy, Little Buddy clothes recycling initiative.
The big question this week is ‘Should schools be car free zones?’ This was a hot topic for discussion. What do you think in your house? Below is some food for thought and discussion. We would love to hear your views.
‘Do we have more clothes than we need?’ 62% of the children at Fairfields voted ‘yes’ in our first Big Buddy, Little Buddy vote. In response to this the children have decided that we will have a ‘Bags to School’ recycling of unwanted clothes. Watch out for more details.
