Music in Reception 🎶

We were so lucky today to have a music session with Mr Wilcox! We learnt all about tunes and beats. We had a go at rapping and then singing our new Number bond song. We will stick these in our reading diaries today so they can teach you at home.
some children were even brave enough to try a solo in front of the whole class…

 

Reception Sports Day 2021

A massive well done to all of Reception for their first sports day! No tears, minimal nerves and lots of positive attitudes to give races a go! We couldn’t be prouder.
We know parents and carers were so keen to see how everyone got on so we have plenty of photos to share…

Reminder about additional copies of reports

Reminder – End of year reports will be sent home with your child on 9th July.   If an additional copy is required by a parent who does not live at the child’s home address, you must contact the school office on 387720 to make a request by no later than Monday 5th July.   

Please ensure that you keep your copy of the report safe, especially if your child is in Year 5.  Some secondary schools (such as Thomas Telford) require a copy to be sent with the application for Year 7 places and we will be unable to make further copies for you once they have been archived.

Illness

With more bubbles shutting across schools and nurseries within Telford and Wrekin we are trying hard to continue to open nursery.  To assist us in this please can you err on the side of caution if your child is at all unwell and keep them at home.  Hopefully, in this way we can make it to the end of term without closing.

Thank you for your support

Update: 28.6.21

Dear Parents/Carers,

 

Unfortunately we have had 2 more positive cases in school (not related to any previous cases we have had).

 

Thank fully our online learning offer is established and that teachers can switch rapidly to avoid children missing more of their education.

 

If your child is any of the bubbles that have been told to isolate, yet you are finding it difficult to gain online access, please call the school and we will do all we can to help.

 

Our procedures in school are as tight as they have ever been and we hope that this outbreak has rapidly been brought under control.

 

As ever, if your children are displaying signs of illness, or in fact if anyone in your house is showing signs of illness, please play it safe and keep children off and get them tested.

 

This virus variant seems to display itself with a headache and cold like symptoms.

 

Luckily due to timings, the bubbles sent home today will be welcome back next Monday, so thankfully only miss 4 more ‘in school’ days where they have to isolate.

 

The Newdale team will continue to work so hard in ensuring the online offer is as high a standard as possible.

 

Thank you for your ongoing understanding and support.
