  • 2-0 Victory for Year 4 Boys Performance team

    Fri 23 Feb 2024 Natasha Pasha

    In a thrilling encounter between Fielding's Year 4 Boys team and Holy Family Boys Team, it was Fielding who emerged victorious in a tightly contested match. The game kicked off with both teams showing great determination and skill, resulting in an intense first half with a scoreline of 0-0.

     

    However, it was in the second half that the action truly unfolded. Fielding Primary's Xavi (4H) and Jamie Reily (4F) showcased their exceptional talent by scoring two fantastic goals, much to the delight of their teammates and supporters. Xavi's goal displayed finesse and precision, while Jamie Reily's strike was a display of power and accuracy.

     

    Despite Holy Family Boys Team's valiant efforts, they were unable to find the back of the net, as our boys defense stood firm throughout the match.  Myles M (4H) did an excellent job in goal and made some wonderful saves. The final whistle blew with Fielding Primary emerging victorious with a 2-0 win over Holy Family Boys Team.

     

    It was a commendable performance from both sides, but ultimately, it was Fielding who claimed the well-deserved victory, thanks to the outstanding contributions of all the players.

     

    Special thanks to...

    Oscar (4S), Jamie L (4H), Samuel S (4H), Patrick (4H), Reuben (4S), Toby (4S), William (4H), Jamie  R (4F), Myles (4H), Xavi (4H)

  • Keeping your child safe online - Instagram

    Mon 12 Feb 2024 Clare Haines

    As part of our safer internet awareness programme, just before the half-term break, children in Years 1 - 6 took part in an assembly or workshop delivered by OpenView Education. open 

     

    Children in Years 1 and 2 learned how to be E-Safety Wizards and explored how to use the internet safely, Older children took part in assemblies on how to keep personal information safe when posting on the internet.  We know that even though social media platforms have age restrictions, that for many children interacting with social media  it is a part of everyday life. With this in mind, children in  Years 3,4 and 5 learned about making 'one good choice' - to stop, block, screenshot and report any worrying content.  Year 6 children took part in workshops to empowered them to make better online decisions. 

     

    How can you support your child to use social media safely? Focus on Instagram,

    Instagram is one of the most used platforms among young people and adults. The platform can be excellent source of entertainment and information for people of all ages. 

    As I'm sure most of you know, the platform is focused on images and videos. Did you know there is also a private chat function? For many children and teenagers the chat function is the sole reason they use Instagram.

    Privacy is optional on Instagram, and there is a wide spectrum of privacy options. To understand these options better the Southwest Grid for Learning has published a guide to help navigate through the many options. The guide answers questions such as:

    • Is my account private or public?
    • How to share with a select group of followers?
    • How do I block someone?
    • Do you know how to report content?
    • How do I hide comments and message requests?
    • How do I delete or report comments?
    • How do I delete my account?

    . Please click on the link below to find out more
