This is because new COVID-19 infections are rising fastest among this age group. By getting as many people as possible tested people who are infectious can be identified and asked to self-isolate to help stop infection spreading. Parents/carers will be informed of testing arrangements for school age children by their child’s school next week. For everyone else in the age group, there's no need to book. Just turn up to one of the follow test centres between 8am-8pm from Saturday 19 June: [ Super Science!](https://fairfieldprimary.co.uk/news/2021-05-13-super-science) [Sports Day(s) 2021! ](https://fairfieldprimary.co.uk/news/2021-07-08-sports-day-s-2021) ![Fairfield Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/fairfield-primary-school/images/logo/Fairfield_logo.png) #### Fairfield Primary School Gallowbarrow Cockermouth CA13 0DX 01900 821133 01900 821132 #### Academies Within Our Trust: - [Broughton Moor Primary School](https://broughtonmoorschool.co.uk/) - [Broughton Primary School](https://broughtonprimarysch.co.uk/) - [Cockermouth School](https://cockermouthschool.org/) #### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/fairfieldprimaryschool/) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/fairfieldprimaryschool/) [![](https://fairfieldprimary.co.uk/images/logo/LFLT_Logo(1).png)](https://learningforlifetrust.co.uk/) Company Number: 09690231 (England & Wales) Registered Office Address: Fairfield Primary School, Gallowbarrow, Cockermouth, CA13 0DX © Copyright 2025–2026 Fairfield Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://fairfieldprimary.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
