Welcome to Furness Primary
Furness Primary School aims to provide a safe and positive atmosphere which stimulates a working environment and where children can achieve high standards through a solid foundation of teaching across a creative and broadly balanced curriculum. We endeavour to provide all of our children with the skills needed to develop positive attitudes, where mutual respect, values and sensitivity are nurtured within a culturally diverse community.
Year 6 Countdown 5...4...3...

We are coming towards the end of the year when the school will be closing for the summer. We have had a fantastic year and the children and teachers have enjoyed their life-long learning. This is also a sad time, when we have to say goodbye to our oldest children in Year 6. They have had a gruelling 9 months but it has paid off, as shown in their SATs results this year. They have also been working very hard over the last few weeks to get their end of year performance as perfect as it can be as well as preparing for their graduation.
Parents are invited to attend the year 6 production and the children are looking forward to seeing you all there on the day.

Also this week at Furness...
Young Leaders and some children representing the school in Football had the priviledge to attend the Para Athletics Championships at the Olympic stadium in stratford. It was a very unique experience for both teachers and children to be able to see elite Athletics competing at the highest level. It was a very inspirational day filled with lots of joy!
Healthy Eating week
1) Monday 12th June- Friday 16th June 2017-all children (and adults) will keep their own challenge tracker of what they do on a daily basis based on the five healthy challenge aims of the week which are: Having breakfast, having 5 a day, drinking plenty, exercising and trying something new. All children will need to complete the challenge tracker sheet (attached) individually on a daily basis. The tracker sheets will then be reviewed by the School Council on Friday afternoon. The Kindness mug needs a new home therefore the class that is the most healthythroughout the week will receive the mug based on the review. The healthiest boy and girl in each class will also receive a certificate for really showing a great healthy lifestyle throughout the week.
2) Walk to School on Thursday 15th June 2017 (also linked to ECO clean air day).
3) Friday 16th June 2017 Funky Lunch workshop for KS1 and KS2. This will include the 'Making' of healthy lunches. Like the Anti-Bullying workshop in the Autumn term, some year groups may be limited to 10-15 children per class in order to allow each year group to have a chance.
