E-Safety Top Tip – Parent’s guide to Technology

Has your child made a Christmas wish list yet?

Phones, tablets, consoles and TVs are frequently at the top of Christmas lists,
so make sure to get ahead of Christmas shopping by looking at the Parents’ Guide to Technology to help with the safe set-up of new devices.

https://www.saferinternet.org.uk/advice-centre/parents-and-carers/parents-guide-technology

This website has information about phones, laptops, smart speakers, games consoles, tablets and smart TVs so you can research whether these devices would be suitable for your child.

If you need more support or guidance with online safety please contact a staff member or send us an email newdale.primary@taw.org.uk

26.11.21 Christmas update

Dear Parents/Carers,

Over the next few weeks, we have let you know of some very exciting events that we have got planned for the children to get them into the festive spirit.

As a school, we are continuing to tightly follow COVID-19 guidelines to ensure that we keep the virus at bay. In line with these guidelines, if your child is attending the cinema or pantomime, it is optional for them to wear face coverings on the coach and when seated in the theatre. Members of staff will ensure that there is ventilation on the coaches as we know that this is key to limiting the spread of transmission. Hand gel will also be provided to the children on the trips at relevant intervals. We are tightly following the risk assessment guidelines issued by the theatre.

As mentioned in previous parent correspondence, if your child is feeling unwell or displaying symptoms, please refrain from sending them into school and take a precautionary test.

Please refer to class pages on the website for further information about year group specific events.

Many thanks

Miss Cook

Covid update 25th November 2021

Dear Parents/Carers,

As you can see from the table below, Telford and Wrekin are still struggling with incredibly high rates of Covid.

We are doing all we can in school to prevent the spread of the virus and we really appreciate the support we are getting from parents.

Some parents are getting frustrated when school staff call in order for them to collect their child. This may be because our staff team have spotted symptoms, or if indeed the child tells us they are unwell.

We know it is really hard to find immediate childcare, but we also hope all parents can see that we are only doing this in the hope we prevent further outbreaks across the school community.

We have everything crossed in the hope that all families and staff are not needing to self-isolate over the Christmas period and we will continue to work hard with this goal in mind.

As ever, thank you again for your continued support.

Miss Cook

Y4 Important Information Please Read

Due us needing to isolate Y1 from the rest of the school, Mrs Fenn’s class from tomorrow (Friday 26th) will enter via lost property in a morning and at the end of the day for the time being. If you currently collect your child and would now like them to walk and meet you at the gate, please let us know.

Christmas cards in school

As Christmas comes increasingly closer, your child may be preparing for the annual Christmas card writing session! As in previous years, we will be isolating cards before we send them out. In order for us to do this, the last date that classes will accept cards will be Friday 10th December – no cards will be accepted in after this date. This is to allow the Newdale elves time to sort and send the cards to the correct people!

Year 2 Nature Walk – Wednesday 1st December

Year 2 Nature Walk – Wednesday 1st December

Year 2 will be going on their nature walk during the afternoon after lunch. They will have their school photos on this day too.

Please ensure your child comes to school with a warm/waterproof coat, hat, scarf and gloves if you wish and appropriate footwear. If they bring wellies, please bring them in a carrier bag as we will change into them after lunch.

Thank you

Year 2 team
