Pupils Read Aloud
Hello everyone,
At Fairfield Road we want our children to become confident speakers and readers. We encourage our children to read aloud using verve and expression. Below, listen to our KS2 children reading biographies.
Mr McCabe 😀
To mark Science Week, some of our Year 5 pupils would like to share stories about famous, female scientists. Their remarkable work has led to important breakthroughs in chemistry, biology and physics!
