Free School Meals

Dear Parents/Carers,

We already have many families who enjoy the benefits after applying for Free School Meals and we urge you to reconsider if you meet the criteria listed below.

By applying for Free School Meals, very often parents think it is all directly linked to school dinners- it isn’t! If you qualify for Free School Meals, it also means that you are entitled to significantly reduced prices for school trips, breakfast clubs and after school clubs. There are many other benefits that your child could directly receive to potentially support them at home and if needed, with their learning at school.

Families with children in years Reception up to Year 6 can apply for Free School Meals if they are entitled to certain benefits and have an annual income of £16,190 or below.

Please follow the below link as this will take you to the Telford & Wrekin website where you are able to access more information and download an application form which will be sent directly to the team. Or alternatively, speak to a member of staff in the school office for support in applying.

A big thank you to everyone that supported the film nights.

School parliament treasurers have been busy calculating the profit and the money raised in total was £634.97.

This will go towards funding the Healthy Lifestyle week.

Thank you, on behalf of School Parliament.

Behaviour

At Newdale, we pride ourselves on our calm and orderly environment which enables our pupils to learn effectively. Our ‘BeSMART code’ is the backbone to our behaviour system and we believe that a positive approach is the key to good behaviour. We want to support our pupils in developing a sense of pride in their efforts; both with their learning and with their behaviour.  We reward positive behaviour, for example with stickers, house points and gold cards. Please ask your children about this at home so that you can further celebrate this together. Please see the attached document for more information about Newdale’s behaviour system and how you can use our systems to support behaviour at home too!

Parents’ Evening

Whilst you wait in the corridor for your parents’ evening appointment next week, please feel free to look through your child’s books. You will notice some questions have been printed for you to ask your child about their learning. A great way of getting children to remember their learning is to regularly revisit past knowledge. We are planning in lots of time for children to do this and felt parents evening was an opportunity not to be missed. Please spend a few minutes with your child talking about their learning this half term and you never know you might learn something new too!

We look forward to welcoming parents and carers into the school next week.
