This week, Year 4 explored the life and achievements of Granville T.Woods as part of Black History Month. The pupils learned about his significant contributions to the development of railway communications. Building on this knowledge the pupils created a simple electrical circuit which incorporated a switch. They then used their creativity and problem solving skills to design different ways of sending messages using a light bulb. 5 Likes

Today, Fairlands School joined the National Literacy Trust and the British Council in an exciting attempt to set a new Guinness World Record for having the most number of people reading online in 12 hours. Year 6 got to hear from Frank Cottrell-Boyce and his experiences as an author then we were given a dedicated reading time, which will contribute to the record attempt.
