Dear parents and carers,

Please can I ask for your support in talking to your child about them playing in the smooga in the mornings before school. The smooga and play equipment is closed before and after school as, I am sure you can appreciate, if all 420 children came into school to play before school, we would have an issue. This is not an exception for year 6. Equally, the children are not supervised by school staff at this time so any accidents or incidents are not our responsibility, but then spill into school for us to deal with at the start of the school day. A number of year 6 children are disrespecting staff instructions each morning when they are told to stop playing, and are continuing to play with any ball, pine cone, stone, cone or moveable object they can find, kicking it around. The next morning, they are arriving at school and doing the same again when they think school staff are not watching. We completely understand that the children enjoy playing, and there is plenty of opportunity for this in the school day. However, arrival time in the morning is not the time for this. 

I have told the pupils today that children will need to be escorted to school by their parents if they continue not to follow this safety instruction in the mornings. 

Many thanks for your support.

Please do take time to click on the link and share your views- we appreciate your time in doing this and ask you to encourage other parents to do the same. The survey is open until Friday 10th July.

Due to the heatwave the after-school Dance Graduation Practice with Tracey is cancelled for today.

Your child will finish school at the end of the school day unless you have signed for earlier pick up.

Practise will resume next week.

A final reminder to order your year 6 hoodies if you would like one by 11.00pm TONIGHT. We don't want anyone to be disappointed by missing this deadline.

Many thanks

Sorry for the late notice but the forecast has changed and the rain is set to stay now for the afternoon. The playground is very slippy for netball so we have cancelled today's training after school. If this is an issue at all, please contact school. 

Apologies.

Mrs Hopkins

Dear parents and carers,

As a tradition in year 6, we would like to organise leavers hoodies for the children to purchase and wear for their final half term in school. They will be able to keep these as a memory of their time at Fairfields. The hoodies will be designed with the school logo on the front, and with the children's names from year 6 on the back. Only the children's first names will be used, unless we have two children with the same first name. In this situation, the child's first name and first letter of their surname will be used.  

A parent of a child in year 6 has kindly offered to coordinate the hoodies being designed and ordered but before we send out further details, we need to check if you are happy for your child's name to be included on the hoodie. If you do not want your child's name on the hoodie, please can you inform the school office by Friday 8th May. After this date, we will get started on the hoodie design. 

Many thanks

Mrs Vicky Hopkins
