Dear Fair Oak Family,

News for all pupils

Please note that there is no vehicular access to the school campus for dropping off for the Film nights this week or for those attending the Harvest Assembly on Friday. Thank you for your cooperation.

Please see below details of the Fair Oak & Horton Heath Remembrance Day Service.

The children in Years 3 and 5 will be painting their box heads on Tuesday and Wednesday and the Year 6 pupils will be doing their papier mâché on Wednesday. Please can they bring in an apron or painting shirt (old top/ large shirt) which doesn’t matter if it gets paint or paste on it. Thank you

There are a number of outstanding music lesson payments. If your child is taking music lessons, please can you check that you have paid the amount due.

News for Year 3

The Year 3 children are looking forward to their trip to Butser Farm tomorrow. Remember they should wear their Fair Oak Junior School jumpers, but with jeans, tracksuit bottoms or leggings, with their waterproof coat and robust suitable footwear such as trainers, walking boots or wellies.  It will be an active day so they should bring a packed lunch, plenty of snacks and their water bottles (no glass bottles or fizzy drinks). Please be mindful that we are a nut free school on visits too.

News for Year 4

We have been asked by a couple of people, who are trying to work out the logistics of picking up other children, about the timings of the Harvest Assembly. At the moment Mrs Gowers thinks it will last around an hour, although the children have not yet run through the whole event to know for sure. We hope this approximation will help your planning. 

The children will be coming home today with a ticket for the Harvest Assembly. If it is a yellow ticket, it means that only one member of the family can attend and if it is a red ticket, two members of the family can attend. Please bring the ticket to gain entry on the day.

News for Year 5

Just a reminder that the deposit payments for the Year 5 residential trip to Stubbington are due by this coming Friday.

News for Year 6

There is no news specific to Year 6.
