A huge thank you to all parents, carers, and family members who sponsored the event. Every contribution makes a real difference. All proceeds will go towards raising funds for our school’s new reception area—designed to improve security by adding a door beyond the main reception—along with classroom renovations and 15 new iPads that will benefit all classes.

We’re thrilled to share that we are currently sitting at just under an incredible £5,000!

Thank you once again for your generosity and continued support.
From everyone at the school—thank you!

Friends are aiming to raise £8000 this year to go towards the new welcome area, a new carpet for Barn Owls class and 15 Ipads to be used across the school, so every penny counts.

SFIS placed fourth in the Hampshire leaderboard—an amazing achievement!

Well done to all our pupils and families for your enthusiasm and commitment. Keep up the fantastic work and let’s see how far we can climb next month!

Throughout the week, classes across all year groups have taken part in paired reading activities, with older children reading to younger pupils—a highlight for many!

A big thank you to Mrs Deans, our English Lead, for organising such a fantastic World Book Day celebration.

The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) organises this annual event to help people of all ages connect with local wildlife and contribute to vital bird population data. For those interested in learning more or participating at home, the RSPB’s dedicated website—www.rspb.org.uk—offers resources and guidance to join the birdwatching fun. 

They produce a monthly calendar with a different theme which is very useful in reminding us of the little things that we can do each day that make a difference to ourselves and others and how we feel. Each month we will share the calendar with you (see below) as a way of supporting your family’s wellbeing. 

Please check out our Health and Wellbeing page in the Parent tab. 

The children enjoyed expressing themselves creatively through movement, voice, and improvisation.

A big thank you to Perform!

Thank you to the incredible Mrs Parkes for being our teacher. She was brilliant. While we certainly learnt a lot, the main goal was to have fun, and we certainly achieved that!

Given how much fun it was, we're thrilled to announce that we'll be running it again next week! Please mark your calendars for Monday 17th November at 08:30 in the main playground.

It's truly a wonderful way to kick-start your day and week, boost your energy, lift your spirits, and cultivate a positive mindset. We'd absolutely love for you to join us again, or for the first time if you missed out today!

Let's make it another fantastic start to the week.

We are thrilled to announce an exciting new initiative designed to strengthen our school community and support one another: the launch of our School Community Pantry! Inspired by the simple motto, "Take What You Need, Give What You Can," this pantry is being trialled this term as a resource available to all parents, family members, and staff.

 When and Where?

The pantry will be open after school on Tuesdays and Wednesdays throughout the month of November in the main playground.

This is a trial for November, and if it proves popular and beneficial to our community, we will certainly look to extend it. If you would like to donate we are looking for:

Non-perishable food items: (e.g., canned goods, pasta, rice, cereals, long-life milk, no nuts)

Good quality, pre-loved toys or games: (clean and in good condition)

Toiletries or hygiene products: (new and unopened)

If you have items you'd like to donate, please speak to a member of our leadership team at the school gate during drop-off or pick-up times. They will be happy to assist you.

Your donations will make a BIG difference to local people in crisis. Together we raised a fantastic 91.41 kg of food. 

The calendar helps to remind us that fresh activities bring us joy and confidence and can often help us to see challenges in a different light.

It was wonderful to see so many family members attending and celebrating the children's magnificent artwork. The gallery was a huge success, and the children should be incredibly proud of their creations and the hard work they put into the exhibition. For more details of the art curriculum, please visit the School News page on the school website.

All food bank donations, kindly given in exchange for a copy of your child's artwork, will be donated to Farnborough Food Bank. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.

We are thrilled to announce we have been awarded the Good level Modeshift STARS accreditation, a national accreditation programme dedicated to improving pupil health and well-being through active and sustainable travel.
