Site Security

Dear Parents/Carers,

We have noticed some issues around attempted access to our site after school via the top gate leading to the Wrekin Way. We even had to stop a lady with a shopping trolley yesterday who wanted to use it as a cut through.

There have also been issues with teenagers, who keep coming back and attempting to ride bikes etc on our site.

As a result of this we are going to lock this gate at 3.30pm to unsure continued safety for our Afterschool Club children.

Thank you for your understanding.

Miss Cook

Curriculum Governors Involvement Update

During the Curriculum committee this week, Governors reviewed the art curriculum offer across the school and enjoyed listening to the children share their artistic ideas and sketch books. Governors were impressed with their enthusiasm for this subject and the clear enjoyment they link to art trips out of school. Governors recognised that the subject leader had a robust knowledge of his subject and was instrumental in supporting staff in the delivery of this curriculum area.

Governors also focused on the curriculum offer for pupil premium and SEND children across year 1 and 2. It was reassuring for Governors to hear and see that teachers are skilfully adapting the learning to meet the children’s specific needs.

Cool Cat!

Dear Parents/Carers,

Cool Cat thoroughly enjoyed his visit to Newdale and will be sending a message to the younger classes today congratulating them on coming to school every day and on time. He will be back during the summer Cool Cat week.

We always have a focus on attendance as our learning is planned in continuous sequences and therefore if a child misses a part of this sequence, it is tricky for them to catch up.

We understand that there are occasions where absence is unavoidable, but please remember that we are allowed to administer Calpol in school (with your permission) should you be unsure as to whether to send your child in or not.

Thankyou for your continued support.

Treetops Wraparound Care

Dear Parents/Carers,

We are excited to announce a relaunch of our Treetops Wraparound Care website!

We have been very busy creating a new online space where parents/carers can look at information about our Wraparound Care provision and all the wonderful things that happen in Breakfast and After School Club.

This new webpage can be found on our Newdale website. Follow these steps to locate this page:

  1. Simply click the tab ‘Discover our School’
  2. Next, click on the ‘About’ tab
  3. Finally, you will see the tab called ‘Wraparound Care- Treetops’.

The new sections at the bottom of the page will appear as below:

  • Here, you will have access to the relevant forms / documents should you wish to book a space at either Breakfast or After School club.
  • You will also be able to view some of the exciting activities and trips the children take part in.
  • We have now also created a separate area where our healthy Breakfast and After School Club snack menus can be found.
  • Finally, should you wish to know who your children are working with during their time in Treetops wraparound care, we have added a ‘Meet the Team’ page where you can put a face to the name for all of our Treetops staff.

Please take a look. We hope you enjoy looking at the photo updates of your child/children during their time in wraparound care.

Many Thanks

Year 1- Dog Visit

The children in Year 1 had a wonderful time meeting Ernie the dog today.

They learnt how to care for a dog and were able to feed and stroke him.

Next week, the children will be writing their own non-chronological report about how to look after a dog. We can’t wait to read them!

Here are some pictures below:
