Firside Junior School offers a stimulating environment for learning, where your child can thrive and do well. We believe that every child deserves the best education possible and we aim to provide just that. We set out to give your child a sense of purpose, encourage their confidence and to enjoy learning.
We work with you to ensure your child can become the best they can be. With support from home, we are confident your child will be able to make the most of the many opportunities that lie ahead.
As we head towards the summer holidays, we are highlighting these resources as, this week (13th - 20th June), is Drowning Prevention week. Norfolk is surrounded by water from our coastline and rivers to the Broads, lakes, and harbours. While these environments offer fantastic opportunities for fun and learning, they also bring real risks. It is so important to help children and young people understand how to stay safe in, on, and around water. https://rnli.org/video-download?videoid=3E356418-9FC7-4B6D-A5D8AF30D2A53E82
13 Jun 2026Special awards - DREAM assembly 12.6.26
12 Jun 2026DREAM Award assembly 12.6.26 It was wonderful to hear all the reasons why children had been nominated from a range of subjects right across the curriculum this week. The breadth of achievements on display was a real reflection of the hard work, determination and positive attitudes shown by our pupils every day. We also celebrated some fantastic additional achievements, including our amazing readers and another five children who have become Rock Heroes this week. Year 4 are absolutely on fire at the moment with their Times Tables Rock Stars success! A special mention also goes to the children who received Community Kindness Awards for their visits to the care home last term. Their kindness, respect and willingness to make a difference in our community make us incredibly proud. Congratulations to everyone recognised today – keep up the fantastic work! #DREAM
