Enrichment and Legacy Activities
Enrichment is a key driver at Fairfield Primary School. We provide a broad range of enrichment opportunities - focused around Sports, the Arts and Culture - as we firmly believe that these opportunities have a number of benefits for our pupils, both academically and personally by broadening their life experiences. Enrichment can help to raise academic standards, enhance performance and teach life skills that will equip our pupils for an ever-changing world.
