Thank you to everyone at Fairlands Primary School for the donations you kindly sent in for our Harvest Festival, which have been gratefully received by Feed Up Warm Up, a wonderful local charity who offer food, friendship and support to homeless people, and those at risk of homelessness in Hertfordshire.

Last term, we held our school sponsored fun run to raise money for The Brain Tumour Charity. The event was a huge success with many children and staff dressing up in a wide range of fun costumes to walk, jog and run the course. Last week, we proudly presented a charity with the cheque for £2069.60 which will go towards helping families navigate treatment and to funding research. Thank you to everyone in the friends community for your support! 29 Likes

Phonics Fun ✏️⭐️ The children in Reception have been busy practising their phonics skills by writing words using the sounds they have been learning. They have been working hard to listen carefully, identify the sounds they can hear and use their Phonics knowledge to help them write words independently. It has been lovely to see their confidence growing and their enthusiasm for learning! We are so proud of their fantastic efforts 👏 ❤️ 6 Likes
This week, Year 4 explored the life and achievements of Granville T.Woods as part of Black History Month. The pupils learned about his significant contributions to the development of railway communications. Building on this knowledge the pupils created a simple electrical circuit which incorporated a switch. They then used their creativity and problem solving skills to design different ways of sending messages using a light bulb. 5 Likes
Hornbeam class in year 3 have been studying Marcus Rashford as part of Black History Month. We learned all about his incredible work to convince the government to provide free school meals for more children. To show our gratitude we wrote thank you letters to him and today we took a wet walk to post them all. Fingers crossed for a reply! 17 Likes
