London Fields Primary School

It is fantastic to see the progress our Reception children are making in their writing. Their confidence and independence continue to grow and many chidlren are now choosing to indepenently write during continuous provision.

The children use their phonics knowledge to write words using phonetically plausible spellings and love recording their ideas. 

We love seeing our chidlren develop a genuinle love of learning!

Four Year 5 children (part of the Eco Team) attended the TFL Explorers Ambassador Summer Seminar on Thusday, 11th of June, to help maintain our Gold Travel for Life accreditation. 

During the event, the chidlren learned how to plan an exciting Air Quality Day at school (watch this space for more details!). They also developed their communicaiton and presentation skills as they prepared and delivered an assembly speech. They children were fantatsic and represented our shcool brilliantly. Their hard work paid off, as they were one of 3 schools selected to present their speech to all the other schools in attendance. 

Their catchy slogan was "Clean Air Everywhere. Think, Test, Do!"

We are incredibly proud of their enthusiasm and confidence! Well done, London Fields Primary School

For the final Computing topic, Year 2 have been learning how to input data into spreadsheets. They have learnt all about rows, columns and cells, and how to edit spreadsheets to make their information clearer and easier to read. 

Today, despite the rain, we celebrated International Day of Play by having an extra 31 minutes of playtime! 

The United Nations has designated 11 June as the International Day of Play. This date marks a significant milestone in efforts to prioritise play as a fundamental right for every child, as enshrined in Article 31 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. 

This year’s campaign theme is "Protect play, protect childhood".

The children played games like "What's the Time Mr Wolf," and "Duck, Duck, Goose," with their peers and teaching staff and had a great time! 

Year 3 even got involved whilst on their trip to Shoeburyness Beach!

As part of our commitment to give children a range of experiences throughout their time at London Fields, our Reception children visited the Sea Life London Aquarium. 

They were excited to travel to central London, taking in the sights from the coach. The trip gave children the opportunity to explore life beneath the seas and oceans, inspiring curiosity about the natural world. Our Reception pupils were a credit to the school throughout the day, showing excellent behaviour and enthusiasm as they explored the exhibits and discovered a variety of marine species. 

The children also enjoyed a picnic lunch and time to play at Jubilee Gardens before returning to school. 

We are grateful to FOLF for contributing towards the cost of the trip and making this experience possible, and to the parents who accompanied us. 

A special thank you to all the school staff who, led by our Headteacher Sharon, helped make this wonderful day possible for the children. 

We are learning all about weather and climate in Geography. Today, we learnt about mild and extreme types of weather before becoming meteorologists and presenting a weather report ourselves. 

Today we looked at the artist Giuseppe Arcimboldo, then created our own portraits using fruit and vegetables. The children enjoyed making unique and expressive portraits. Make sure you ask them about their work and see if they can remember Arcimboldo’s name!

Year 2 have been lucky to look after some chicks as part of their Science learning about life cycles! It was amazing to witness them hatch and grow into the fascinating creatures that they are. The children took on the responsibility of caring for, cleaning, and feeding them! The children were sad to see them go, so they wrote some lovely cards which have been sent to the chicks’ new home.
