This term, our whole-school book was Barnaby Unboxed by The Fan Brothers - a magical, moving and visually rich picture book about friendship, resilience and finding your place in the world. The story perfectly supports our whole-school theme of building a community where everyone belongs and celebrating what makes each of us unique.

Through Barnaby’s journey, our pupils learn an important message: being perfect isn’t what makes you special - being yourself is. From Nursery through to Year 6, every year group enjoyed reading the book and exploring Barnaby’s story together.

The text inspired a whole-school writing unit, with all pupils completing work linked to the book. In Key Stage 2, children focused on persuasive writing and each year group produced some excellent pieces of writing.

We are incredibly proud of our pupils - Farfield Children Can be writers!
