Children in need fundraising
We are very excited to announce that children in Year 4 will be taking part in a ’Big Fancy Dress Singalong’ in aid of Children in Need to help raise money for child mental health projects. The children will be filmed by the BBC and the video will be on local social media via BBC Radio Shropshire’s Facebook page.

Year 1 Trip to Hoo Zoo – Miss Newport’s class
Today we visited Hoo Zoo as part of our learning in Science.
We looked at the animals, dinosaurs and even had time to play on the park. Everyone had a fantastic day!
Reception Castle Banquet and Share Aware Week
On Monday we had lots of fun at our castle banquet. Thank you for providing the wonderful costumes.
On Tuesday we took part in our Share Aware Lesson. We discussed that we must be respectful to all people and that girls and boys can play with any type of toy. We took turns in circle time to say why these toys were our favourite.
Our trip to Hoo Zoo
Today we went on a trip to Hoo Zoo because we are learning about ‘Humans and Animals’ in our science lessons.
We had the most fantastic day. We met lots of different types of animals, some dinosaurs and we even got a play on the park.
We will all sleep well tonight.
Choir Young Voices Online Resources
Dear Choir,
Congratulations on making such a positive start to Choir Club. Your enthusiasm has been fantastic and we have loved starting to get to grips with the vast array of music! You should now have a paper copy of the lyrics.
To practise at home, you can visit https://www.youngvoices.co.uk/music-room and type in the password: YV2021
This will give you access to the lyric videos as well as the fantastic dance tutorials.
Choir members who come prepared will be given extra house points!

I will be running a times table club for my class after half term on a Thursday. Letters were sent out on Friday. This will be a great opportunity for children to practise their times tables and build on their recall. The club is free and will end at 4pm.
If you would like your child to attend, please complete the permission slip.
Many thanks
Mrs Fenn
NB. Mr Jackson will be running a times table club for his class after Christmas.
Ask your child about the 9 times table hand trick!
We have been learning our 9 times tables in class. Ask your child to show you the simple hand trick which helps you become a 9 times table whizz in no time. There are videos on YouTube if your child is still unsure.
Base Camp
Year 2 will not be going to Base Camp tomorrow and their kits will not be needed in school.
Instead of a science afternoon, (our trip included lots of science this week!), we will be having a Geography afternoon. During this afternoon, we will be looking at identifying the seven continents of the World. We will be using this handy song to help us remember!

Newdale Families – Religion Census October 2021
We hope you have all settled back into the school routines for this academic year. My name is Miss McCullagh and this year I will be co-ordinating Religious Education at Newdale.
To help us understand more about our families, we would really like an updated picture of the different religions, beliefs and values held by the children, and families, within our Newdale community. This will support us in ensuring that our Religious Education offer is as inclusive as possible for our community.
We would be really grateful if you could spend 5 minutes completing the survey below, by Tuesday 19th October.
Thank you in advance, for you support 😊
