• A Wonderful Book Week

  Thu 14 Mar 2024 G. Robinson

  What a fabulous week was had by all at Book Week.

   

  Children donated an amazing 426 books to our school library. Inside the front cover they stuck a special sticker explaining why they chose to recommend the book. Thank you so much to all who donated. It is very much appreciated, and I know the books will be enjoyed by many.

   

  As always Buddy Reading was a highlight. All KS2 children shared books with EYFS and KS1 children and I have had several requests already from children and teachers for this to happen more often. A highlight for me was seeing Year 4 children inspire Reception children by reading them a piece of their own writing they felt proud of. Reception children I spoke to were determined that one day they would be able to write like Year 4!

   

  ‘Mystery Reader’ proved to be a popular event for the children who were surprised by another teacher arriving in their classroom to read them a story. Their faces lit up at the ‘reveal’ of who was coming to read. Another event which will without doubt be repeated.

   

  KS1 and KS2 children enjoyed their virtual author visit by an award-winning performance poet, playwright and children's author Joseph Coelho, current Waterstones Children’s Laureate and Alan Robinson thrilled Reception children explaining his job as an animator. It was fascinating to see how the process works from the first idea until the finished product. The children enjoyed creating their own monsters to attend ‘The School of Roars’ that the session was based on. Alan is a parent from our school, and we want to thank him so much for his time and enthusiasm.

   

  The Book Fayre was very popular and raised £1484. This means will be allocated approximately £700   to spend on books for our school. From the last Book Fayre, we were able to purchase new dictionaries and thesauruses for Year 6. Thank you to our wonderful Librarians and Mrs Hodge who helped it to run so smoothly.

   

  Last but by no means least, a special thank you goes to Jaime Reilly, a pupil in Year 4, who after attending Jeff Kinney's ‘No Brainer’ Tour in Ealing and taking part in a quiz, won a box of Penguin Books and chose to donate them all to our school Library. We are very proud of Jaime for his generosity and thoughtfulness.

   

  We are already planning next year but, in the meantime, keep reading!

  

• ARP taxis : caution for pedestrians at drop-off time

  Wed 13 Mar 2024 Peter Dunmall

  From Monday, taxis that drop-off and collect some pupils in the ARP will enter and leave the school site at new times. Pedestrians be aware of moving vehicles and use the pedestrian gate.

   

  Taxi vehicles will use the Wyndham Road vehicle gates to enter and leave the school site at new times from Monday:

  • Morning drop-off between 9.00am - 9.15am
  • Afternoon collection between 3.00pm - 3.15pm

   

  In the morning, vehicles will enter the school site after the main pupil drop-off. Pedestrians - mostly parents leaving the school site after drop-off - should use the pedestrian gate and be cautious of any moving vehicle.

   

  In the afternoon, vehicles will enter and leave the school site before the main pupil collection. 

   

  No other vehicles will be allowed to enter or leave the school site at these times.

   

  The Council provides transport for some pupils who have special educational needs so that they can attend our ARP. The Council uses a range of transport providers. Currently, 4 taxis are used to drop-off and collect our ARP pupils.

• Year 4 Girls Football team Prep Match vs. Holy Family for London Games

  Fri 08 Mar 2024 Natasha Pasha

  The Year 4 Girls Performance Football Team from Fielding Primary School took on Holy Family in a lively match marked by determined play and spirited efforts.

   

  Round 1 saw both teams battling evenly, resulting in a hard-fought draw as neither side could break the deadlock.

   

  In Round 2, Fielding Girls faced a setback as Holy Family managed to secure a 2-0 victory, displaying their strength in attack.

   

  Despite Holy Family's dominance in possession during Round 3, Fielding Girls demonstrated resilience and determination. In a thrilling conclusion, Bea (4H) scored a last-minute goal, narrowing the scoreline to 2-1. The team fought bravely until the final whistle.

   

  Hannah (4H) has shown great progress as a goalkeeper and really tried her best to keep the ball out, even though it didn't always work out. 

   

  Acknowledgment goes to defenders Sophie (4S), Elisa (4P), Lola (4S), Amira (4H), Lucy (4F), and Alice (4P) for their relentless efforts to clear the ball and support the team's defensive line.

   

  In attack, Bea (4H), Jessica (4H), Emily A (4H), and Marie (4P) displayed excellent teamwork and chemistry, pressing forward with determination, although luck wasn't on their side in terms of the score line.

   

  Overall, the Year 4 Girls Football Team demonstrated admirable teamwork, resilience, and determination in their match against Holy Family, showcasing their potential for future success at the London Games. 

   

  Good luck to the girls on Thursday 21st March at the London Games
