Friends of Fairlawn exists to promote positive relationships within the school community and to help fundraise for additional resources and organise social events.
Every parent is automatically a member of Friends of Fairlawn and each class has a parent representative. Our two big fundraising events are the Christmas and Summer Fairs.
Fairlawn has no formal school uniform policy. However we do expect that children are suitably dressed for school. There is a school sweatshirt that can be worn voluntarily which can be purchased from the School Office.
We do have a PE kit for indoor and outdoor PE. Details of this can be found in the PE section of this website.
Please can we ask that you label children’s clothing, especially coats and other outdoor wear as these are items that tend to be left.
If you think you might be entitled to Free School Meals you need to contact Lewisham either online at www.lewisham.gov.uk/freeschoolmeals or by calling 0208 3146221.
Lewisham will be able to check your entitlement with the DWP/Inland Revenue.
