FARFIELD CHILDREN CAN keep safe crossing the road!
Tue 03 Dec 2024Today we had a visit from the Bradford Road Safety Team. Years 1 and 2 learned about keeping safe by holding hands, finding a safe place to cross then stopping, looking and listening before crossing the road with our grown ups. Year 3 went out and practised crossing the road outside of school safely. Year 4 and 5 took part in a head to head quiz about road safety and watched examples of safe crossing. Year 6 learned about Charlie and the different choices he could have made to keep himself safe crossing the road. All of the children were reminded of the Green Cross Code - when you're next crossing the road with your child, ask them to explain this to you.
Thank you to the Bradford Road Safety Team for helping us to keep our children safe when crossing the road!

Whole School Assembly
Mon 02 Dec 2024This week Mrs Bentley’s assembly was all about what we can do to be inclusive. We looked at a story in the news this week from the Football Association which shared how they are inclusive and that everyone is there for the same reasons - to play the same game and enjoy the same passion. We watched a video that showed that EVERYONE can join in with football through the Comets Disability Football Programme. The Programme is supported by the Football Without Limits campaign which ensures that the 28,300 people who are registered as disabled now have access to football at a club within our country.
We also talked about which British Values this week’s news story highlighted and we decided it was Individual Liberty and Mutual Respect. Skylaa in Year 1 reminded us that this story also showed 'love and kindness' from our myHappymind learning.

Mon 25 Nov 2024Today's assembly was about how our hopes and dreams can help us succeed. We found out about a young British climber - Adriana Brownlee - the youngest woman to reach the summit of the world's fourteen highest mountains. We talked about the difficulties she faced in order to achieve her dream and what goals we are working towards ourselves. We all have something we are working towards and it is our Individual Liberty to have the freedom to choose our own path in life and take responsibility for our choices.

Mon 18 Nov 2024This morning, in assembly, Mrs Nichols told us about an amazing discovery! More than 6000 ancient Maya structures have been found hidden by the jungle canopy in Mexico. We found out some interesting facts about the ancient Maya people as well as about discoveries from the past. We talked about how discoveries can change the world and their impact on the world at the time as well as now, and how people may not always agree about how they feel about these discoveries.
