Reaching high for the best for your child

Fairlands enjoyed its first ever Christmas Celebration on Thursday 20th December! Children from every Year Group performed songs on a Christmas theme, including 'The 12 Days of Christmas' and 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer'.

Mr Staples then read us a Christmas story - 'Russell's Christmas Magic', the story of the sheep who saved Christmas!

We then had a very special part of our Celebration - Year 6 made a Circle of Light by standing around the whole school in a large circle, each holding a candle. It was a really magical moment, and helped us remember the light that family, friends and loved ones bring into our lives.

Children in Key Stage 2 brought a touch of Christmas magic to Holy Trinity Church on Monday 17th and Tuesday 18th December. The children performed Christmas songs and gave readings which told the story of the nativity and reminded us all of the true meaning of Christmas.

Reverend Geoff Tickner shared a special Christmas message - we also learned how the Robin got his red chest and how the holly tree got its berries!

The children really enjoyed themselves - Billy Smith (Year 5) said, 'I loved the stained glass windows - the atmosphere was brilliant!'.

The whole school enjoyed a lovely Christmas Dinner on Friday 14th December! We had lots of fun - crackers, songs and our amazing party hats looked brilliant!

Thank you to cook and her staff for making such a tasty meal and thank you to Miss Franklin and all the dinner ladies for getting it all organised!

Parents, friends and families have been enjoying a wonderful treat as Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 performed the Christmas Story 'Are We Nearly There Yet?'.

The story followed five modern day children as they journey back to Bethlehem to discover what the Christmas story is really all about.

We were treated with angels, kings, tiny stars and arabian dancers - and of course, Mary, Joseph and the baby Jesus. Even Santa Claus turned up!

The children have worked SO hard to learn all the songs, all their lines and get their costumes ready (with a little bit of help from parents!). The three performances have all been brilliant - well done, children!

The school was treated to a special Christmas performance on Wednesday 12th December, when The Flying Pizza Company came to perform 'The Jungle Book' for KS1 & 2.

We had a lot of fun meeting all the different characters, even when they were running all around the hall and hiding behind Mrs Hunt!

Welcome to our fantastic new website! We have been planning carefully to make it as informative and as user-friendly as possible, with a strong emphasis on regular news updates and information about upcoming events. Hopefully, you will come back and visit us regularly in the future to find out what is happening at the school and in Stevenage.

Please take the time to have a good look around. Some areas are yet to be developed and will appear over the coming months, including sections for Parents, School Council, Friends of Fairlands, and so on.

Our School has more information About Our Website.

A massive thank you goes to Andy Jeffries, one of our parents, and his company NextGen Development, who have spent a huge amount of time developing the website for us.
