Tuesday 9^th December

Today Fair Oak entered two teams into a South Eastleigh and Winchester table tennis event. Teams were split into two pools. Fair Oak B were placed in a group with Berrywood, Wellstead and Wickham. Fair Oak A were with Freegrounds, Saint James and Swanmore. Both of our teams performed superbly with all of our players showing great determination and teamwork. After all matches had been played, both of our teams finished in second place in their group which meant that they would play off against each other to decide who would finish in third place overall. In a very close encounter, it was Fair Oak A who just shaded it to finish in third place, meaning that Fair Oak B finished in fourth place overall. Well done to all of our fabulous table tennis players!

Fair Oak entered two teams into the South Eastleigh and Winchester basketball finals today. The tournament today was of a very high standard as all cluster winners were participating! Fair Oak played superbly throughout, both in terms of skill and sportsmanship, and the team should be proud of the way they conducted themselves. The full results are given below:

Well done to all of our players who performed brilliantly throughout the event.

From 6 January 2026, Chartwells will become the new catering provider for Fair Oak Junior School.

The main change FROM THE 6TH JANUARY is that parents and guardians will need to book their child’s meal choice at home using the Arbor App.

Please ensure there is enough credit on your child’s account, as meals can only be booked when the balance covers the full cost. The new meal price will be £2.75.

The new menus can be found here.

If a school meal is not ordered, your child will need to bring a packed lunch from home. Families entitled to Free School Meals must still order their child’s meal through Arbor.

All outstanding balances must be cleared before the new system begins. 

Further information on how to place meal orders will be shared over the next couple of weeks.

Thank you for your support during this transition.

Road Safety Week is coming up (week beginning 17/11) and our Junior Road Safety Officers (JRSOs) have been busy designing some fantastic posters, and we’d love to share their work with our school community. View their amazing work here.

We will also be taking part in Bling Your Ride!  Please see the attached for more information.

Before the summer holidays, we held our annual Photography Competition, and once again the standard was incredibly high! This year’s themes were Engineering and Nature, and pupils impressed the judges with their creativity, skill, and eye for detail. After careful anonymous judging by members of our school community, the winners were selected and their stunning photos are proudly displayed below. Well done to everyone who took part — we loved seeing your amazing entries!
