A look into our woodland classroom!
Whether our pupils are enjoying interactive language lessons, developing core skills in sport, or practising mathematical equations, the curriculum at Fairfield is designed to be broad and balanced, offering opportunities for stretch and challenge.
A key part of this varied curriculum is our commitment to outdoor learning. We at Fairfield believe that igniting a passion for the environment in the early stages of a child’s journey through school fosters a lifelong love of outdoor learning, which is why we take learning from the classroom into the great outdoors!
