On Tuesday, Reception and Year 2 were treated to a fantastic performance from a string quartet.

The Playground Proms group performed a variety of classical symphonies which the children thoroughly enjoyed.

The pupils were fascinated by the instruments and the beautiful sounds they made.

They danced, clapped and had so much fun!

Our Reception friends have had a brilliant day on their adventure to Rookery Woods today. ❤️

During Safeguarding Week, our Year 5 children are busy completing their Emergency Basic Life Support training- First Aid.

These life skills are an essential aspect of both our Safeguarding and PSHE Curriculums.

Well done to all of our wonderful Year 5 pupils. ❤️

We've gone coding crazy in Key Stage 2!

Years 3 and 4 have been enjoying an after-school club introducing them to the skills for Lego League, while Years 5 and 6 are partaking in an after-school club using Sphero Indi robots, courtesy of the fantastic, 'Gibrie's Geekery'.

We are thoroughly enjoying our STEAM clubs at Fairfield, this half-term.

Safeguarding Week: Day 2

Today, we welcomed Cumbria Fire & Rescue Service's Green Watch from Workington Fire Station into school to deliver an engaging and informative session to Years 1- 5, based on fire safety in the home and water safety. The children got to see lots of specialist equipment in action. Naturally, Nursery also got to test their hoses and jump in the engine!

Cumbria Constabulary visited school to deliver an Anti-social Behaviour Workshop to Year 6, a Stranger Danger Talk to Reception and a Road Safety Presentation to Year 1.The Police vehicle was also a highlight for all children!

Our Year 6 children enjoyed a very informative 'Dream Big' workshop based upon future aspirations, careers and safety on the job!

Our Year 5 children started their First Aid course learning vital, life skills.

A truly fabulous second day of Safeguarding Week 2026. ❤️

Thank you to all of today's wonderful visitors: Workington Fire Station, Allerdale Police and Primary Business Partnership.

Safeguarding Week: Day 1

The week started with a special assembly to launch the week and to reflect on what safeguarding involves.

Later in the day, our Year 5 children particpated in Gaming and Gambling workshops led by the organisation Y-Gam.

Meanwhile, Years 1, 2, 3 and 4 were engrossed in medicine safety workshops with a local pharmacist. The children asked lots of thought-provoking questions.

We also welcomed the Hub2U team who delivered engaging well-being workshops to our Year 4 children as well as offering advice and support to families after school.

The day concluded with a special assembly led by Cyclewise based on cycling safely on the roads, woodlands and in the Lake District. The session also included advice on preparation, what to do in an emergency and appropriate cycling attire.

Tomorrow, it's the Fire Service, First Aid, Cumbria Constabulary and Cumbria Business Partnership.



Thank you so much to Allisons Chemist, Ygam, Cumberland Family Hubs and Cyclewise.

Our Eco-council have been busy being artistic in nature and made some beautiful, eco-friendly artwork. The ambassadors have also helped the Fairfield community to use our new recycling bins correctly by posting signs above them to remind friends of what can and cannot be recycled.

Great work Eco-council. ❤️
