• 🏊‍♂️💦🏊‍♀️Six weeks of Swimming!🏊‍♀️💦🏊‍♂️

  Fri 13 Feb 2026

  It was quite the quite the surprise to many that a pool appeared on the playground over the Christmas Holidays.

  For the past six weeks over 100 children from Year 4 and Year 5 have been swimming in our pop-up pool every single day! They have all been done wonderfully well and we are very proud of the new skills they have developed.   But sadly it's time to say goodbye to the pool and by the time we return after half term it will have disappeared just as quickly as it appeared.

  Fri 13 Feb 2026

  And that's a wrap on the first half term of our HollieWood Craft Club (run by Miss Hollie⭐ and Mrs Wood⭐). The children taking part have had a wonderful time getting creative with their valentines theme! We can't wait to see what they make in the build up to Easter!

  

• BRIGHT Assembly - Belief

  Mon 09 Feb 2026

  In our BRIGHT assembly this week our theme was Belief. In our story, The Koala Who Could, Kevin the Koala is afraid of change and clings to the safety of his tree. When his world is shaken, he discovers that he is braver and stronger than he actually believed. We discussed how much easier it is to face new challenges if we trust in ourselves and how this will help our confidence to grow.

   

  

• Whole School Assembly - 🧠👍Children's Mental Health Week 2026👍🧠

  Mon 09 Feb 2026

  This morning Mrs Bentley shared Place2Be's theme for Children's Mental Health Week, 'This is My Place'. We talked about what belonging is and what we do at Farfield to make sure everyone feels like they belong to our Farfield Family. The children were able to say how they belong, what helps them explain how they are feeling and who they can talk to at school if they have a problem. We all made a plan to be kind this week. Albie in Y1 said he would ask people to play with him and Ernie-Joe in Y6 said he would hold open doors for others and thank people for their help. We are looking forward to a positive week ahead at Farfield!

  In our BRIGHT assembly this week our theme was Tolerance. We read the story, 'On Sudden Hill'.

• Whole School Assembly - ☺️Find Your Happy☺️

  Mon 02 Feb 2026

  In this morning's assembly, Mrs Atkinson shared the story 'Find Your Happy' by Emily Coxhead. We looked at what the character does to feel happy when he is experiencing different emotions. The children reflected on how this links to Zones of Regulation and the things that we can do to try and get to, or stay in the green zone.
