• Writing inspired by the Buttershaw Beach, Flotsam and Poems about the Seaside

  Fri 01 Oct 2021

  The children have written their own poems, diaries and descriptions all linked to the books Flotsam and Poems about the Seaside. The children also took inspiration from our 2021 Super Starter the Buttershaw Beach!

  Mrs Brannan has been in touch with the creator of Poems about the Seaside, Brian Moses, sharing some of the children's writing with him on twitter.

• 'I DON'T LIKE BOOKS. NEVER. EVER. THE END'

  Fri 07 May 2021

  At Farfield, we don't like books....WE LOVE THEM!!

   

  We started the summer term with our whole school book - 'I don't like books. Never. Ever. The End.' by Emma Perry. 

  After reading this book, there has been story sharing, recommendations written, new adventures planned, alternative endings written, persuasion, debates, investigations carried out and reports written! 

  Take a look at the writing we are celebrating from across school - we really did love this book and the places it took us!

  

• National Day of Reflection - Tuesday 23 March

  Thu 25 Mar 2021

  Tuesday 23rd March was a special day – all across the UK people from all backgrounds and communities came together to reflect on the past year and 

  hope for a brighter future. We tied yellow ribbons to show we were observing a year since the first lockdown began. At 11am everyone at Farfield Primary and Nursery School observed a 1 minute silence and all of the children made lanterns to take home and place in their windows to light up the night.

• Phonics Breakfast

  Tue 21 Jan 2020 Mrs Pritchard

  Thank you to all of the parents/carers who attended the Year 1 Phonics Breakfast last week. The children really enjoyed showing their families how to play the phonics games in their pack. Everyone seemed to find the session informative and useful. If you do have any further questions about how to support your child at home please don't hesitate to speak with the class teacher. We hope that you enjoy using your phonics pack at home.
