Lunchtime Activities
From September 2025, Farnham Primary will be using the Opal programme to broaden the lunchtime activities for all children. Your child will have many more opportunities to be active, as the whole school grounds will be used throughout the year. They will have many more opportunities for imaginative play as there will be many objects to play with. Your child can mix with children of all ages and choose where and how they play. Staff will receive specialist training to enrich play. Opal’s motto is ‘Every child should have an amazing playtime every day without exceptions’. The programme focuses on five key areas of development:

  1. Academic – Play supports real-world learning in all academic areas, including maths, literacy, and language development.
  2. Physical – Research shows play to be the best and most popular way for children to be active. All areas of health are improved when children have plenty of outdoor playful movement.
  3. Social – Play is the way children learn and practice relationships. Learning how to work with and get on with others is essential for a happy and successful life
  4. Mental – Research proves children rate good play as one of the most important things they need to be happy in life. More than half of children now only play outside with other children at school.
  5. Emotional – Play provides the best opportunities for children to learn about the full range of human emotions, understand themselves, and develop strategies for managing their feelings.

After School Clubs
After School Clubs run from Monday to Thursday at 3.10 pm – 4.00 pm for Year 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 pupils. In order to sustain the range of clubs that we can offer, there will be a charge of £2 per child per club.  Please book a place via the Arbor app or contact the school office.
