Year 6 had their leavers barbeque on Monday. It started at 5.30pm and proved to be a great ending to their four years at Fairisle Junior school. There were plenty of burgers, potatoes, sausages and ketchup. A great evening! Thanks to the Year 6 team for organising it.

Goodbye Mr. Wallis, Mrs. Mason and Miss Leaves

Mr. Wallis. Miss Leaves and Mrs. Mason are leaving us at the end of term. All the pupils and staff wish them well in their new posts.

Mrs Mason will leave at the end of term to move to a school closer to her home in Portsmouth. Mrs. Mason has been at Fairisle Junior for the past three years and has taught our Year 6 children since she returned from her maternity leave this term.

Mr Wallis will be joining the staff at Mansel Park Primary School after the summer holiday. Mr. Wallis has taught here for the past four years and his role has included the Year 6 leader’s role.

Miss Leaves will be moving to a school outside the city. Miss Leaves has taught at Fairisle Junior for 4 years and has taught our oldest children this year.

Good luck for the future.
