Year 6 Christmas event

As you know, on Tuesday 16th December it will be the Year 6 Christmas event. Entrance is through the office from 2pm and the event will begin at 2.15pm. Tickets are still available directly from the office (this event is no longer on Parentpay). Please can children (and adults if they wish to!) wear their Christmas jumpers on this day, along with their school uniform. Santa hats etc are welcome – the more Christmassy the better!

We look forward to seeing you there.

WhatsApp issues

Dear Parents and Carers,

We would like to draw your attention to some ongoing concerns regarding children’s use of digital devices outside of school. Recently, we have become aware of large WhatsApp groups involving our pupils, but also Year 7 and 8 pupils. This has unfortunately led to issues such as inappropriate language being used and a high number of disagreements.

As you may know, WhatsApp has a minimum age requirement of 13. Children in primary school are often not yet ready to use such apps responsibly, which is why these restrictions are in place. Despite our Year 6 teams speaking with pupils about online safety and the age limits for apps like WhatsApp, the problem continues.

We kindly ask that you regularly review your child’s online activity and talk with them about how they are using digital platforms. Your support in reinforcing these messages at home is invaluable.

When issues arise outside of school, they can take up significant time during the school day, time that should be focused on learning. By working together, we can help ensure that children remain safe online and fully engaged whilst in school.

Thank you for your continued support.

Miss Cook

NSPCC PANTS Assembly

This week, (03.11.25), children from Reception to Year 6 will be discussing the NSPCC’s PANTS rule as part of a class assembly, led by the class teacher.  During the assemblies, we will aim to teach our pupils the following important safety skills without giving explicit information.

We will be teaching our pupils the NSPCC’s underwear rule, using the ‘PANTS’ acrostic.

PANTS stands for:

  • Privates are private
  • Always remember your body belongs to you
  • No means no
  • Talk about secrets that upset you
  • Speak up, someone can help

The content of the session will be delivered in a way that is fully age appropriate.  The children will then complete additional class sessions in January as part of our ‘Share Aware’ week.

If you would like to know more about the NSPCC’s campaign, please feel free to book onto the parent/ carer workshop hosted by the NSPCC, taking place at Newdale Primary school on 06.11.25 (2:30-3:00pm). This can be booked via Parent Pay. Alternatively, if you have any questions, please speak to the class teacher.

Thank you for your continued support.
